​NFHS Edition
Excellent Quiz by Goht Van Den Brink
This week’s questions are based on NFHS Case Book 10.2.4 Situation.
This is a very specific and unusual scenario involving an unsporting act. It’s important to be familiar with this situation in case it occurs.
Scenario : Immediately following a goal or free throw by Team A, A1 inbounds the ball to A2 and A2 then throws the ball through A’s basket.
Q1: If it is clear that the throw-in and subsequent shot were intentional, an unsporting technical foul should be assessed to Team A.
 
Q2: Team A also assess a delay-of-game warning for interfering with the ball after a goal, however if team A already received a warning for delay under rule 4-47, a Team Technical foul should be assessed
 
Q3: The officials should cancel the field goal and also cancel any common foul(s) during the sequence, including any non-flagrant foul committed against A2 in the act of shooting
 
Q4: The officials should restore the game clock by putting back the time consumed during this sequence 
 
Q5: However if the officials do not recognize the situation until after Team B gains control or after the next throw-in begins. None of the previous procedures (Technical foul(s), canceled score, etc.) are applied
_______________________________________________
