Read rule 2-30-1 and rule 3-7-4 and case play 3.7.2.

I would rule B11 as a replaced player creating a player vacancy once B11 crossed the sideline. A replaced player cannot become a substitute durng the same dead ball period.
That said, technically, a substitution infraction has occurred according to NFHS Rules. Strict enforcement of this rule has to be classified as overly officious. Use preventative officiating to count players and monitor player movement.
