2. After two matches, the lowest score for each team is thrown out. Only the Team's highest score will count.
(For example, Team A scores 50 points in Match 1 and 180 points in Match 2. Team A earns 180 points for the Robot Game. (The low score of 50 points is thrown out.))
3. If two teams' high scores Tie. Then the other match scores will be used to determine the winner.
(For example.
Team A scores 180 in Match 1 and 120 in Match 2.
Team B Scores 80 in Match 1 and 180 in Match 2.
Teams A and B high scores are tied, Team A wins over Team B because the Team A has a higher score (120) in the other match than Team B (80).)
