Wrong team awarded AP throw-in

A play straight out of the NFHS basketball case book occurred tonight in the large-school boys regional championship game.

The referee awarded the ball to the wrong team to start the second quarter. The throw-in was completed and a player was dribbling in the frontcourt near the 28-foot mark when the horn was sounded by the table crew. Play was stopped with 7:56 on the clock and officials were informed that the other team should have had the ball to begin the quarter.

What did the crew do?
Reset the clock to 8:00 and start the quarter over with the other team executing an AP throw-in from the division line opposite the table. Yikes!
