We ask you to please thoroughly read the VEX Robotics Comeptition Starstruck Game Manual and to please review the Q&A Usage Guidelines before posting in this forum. Specifically, please quote the rule or definition that your question is referring to.

In this case there’s a specific rule which answers your question directly. I’ve quoted it below:

@VEX Robotics Competition Starstruck Game Manual

<G9> It is expected that Scoring Objects may unintentionally leave the field during match play. Scoring Objects that leave the playing field will be returned to Zone from which they exited from (e.g. The Zone where the Robot was that launched it or last contacted it on its way out of the field). Teams may not intentionally remove Scoring Objects from the field. We do expect Scoring Objects to leave the field accidently during Scoring, however doing so intentionally or repeatedly would be a violation of this rule. Minor violations of this rule that do not affect the match will result in a warning. Egregious (match affecting) offenses will result in a Disqualification. Teams that receive multiple warnings may also receive a Disqualification at the head referee’s discretion.
