IAABO ruling:
Based on the information we have received this season, the NFHS rules editor has indicated that officials should rule only one infraction (play control, blocking foul, or faking being fouled) on block/charge plays.
Our main motivation for posting this play is to remind officials that there is one exception. The one exception is when a blocking foul occurs after a faking being fouled infraction has occurred.
If we deem a faking being fouled infraction to have occurred on this play, the defender is now lying on the floor, which is an illegal position on the court. If the offensive player subsequently trips over the defender, the official would have rules support to charge both a flopping infraction and a blocking foul on the same play.
Not sure if NFHS did likewise.
