During A1's missed attempt, B3 falls to the ground during rebounding action. A1 gathers the rebound and goes up for the shot again, coming back down and falling over B3 who is still on the ground and not legal. No foul?

So is Green #22 entitled to that spot and this is incidental contact?
For me, that's a foul. Easy to adjudicate in NCAA-Men's because it is addressed as not having an LGP.

Now that the case play is gone from NFHS, I can rule it the same in HS without anybody being able to say I'm wrong by rule.
