Thought that I would post another messed up NFHS exam question.

"If a goaltending violation is penalized for touching the ball entering the basket from below:"

Yet the NFHS definition of goaltending is: "Goaltending occurs when a player touches the ball during a field-goal try or tap while the ball is in its downward flight entirely above the basket ring level, has the possibility of entering the basket in flight and is not touching the basket cylinder or a player touches the ball outside the cylinder during a free-throw attempt."

So the scenario proposed by the NFHS in the exam question does not qualify as goaltending!

The question should involve basket interference.
