Question

So this happened in my sons game and the ruling confused me. I was working the down market so I did ask the question but the answer didn't sound right.
8th grade football. Texas (not sure but I believe they play under NCAA rules)
This happened during a punt. There was a block in the back by both teams. Return team ran ball from their 40is to about the 30 yard line. Foul on the return team occurred near where the ball was caught and the foul on the kicking team I didn't see. In any case they ruled since both fouls were live ball fouls the result of the play stood.
I thought they would be offsetting and replay 4th down as that is what I've always seen. Just curious as to the correct ruling. Thanks in advance.
