The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.
There is a try from A-1 in flight when the official rules a double foul on A-5 and B-5 for roughing each other under the basket. The ball passes through the basket.
Handle the situation.
Although a double foul has been ruled, because a try is in flight, the ball remains live until the try is over. In this case the try ended by passing through the basket. The goal is scored.
A double foul is a point of interruption play. That means that play is resumed from the point when the ball became dead. In this case the ball became dead when the ball passed through the basket.
Play will be resumed from this point which is a successful goal for Team A. Team B will have the ball for a throw-in on the end line. The thrower may move along the end line as after any score.
