You have stated right here the exact problem I have. 5.2.1 states A sucessful try , tap or thrown ball that does not touch the floor, a teammate, or official, from the field by a player who is located behind the team's 19-9 line counts 3 points.
The pass from the top of the key fits here and no-where does it state that the B players touching causes the ball to become a two point goal.
That is the problem I have w/ the wording of this rule.
Can we consider the touch by B scoring a field goal in the wrong basket? If so than 5.2.3 covers the loopehole by refering it back to the last part of 5.2.1 stating: ...anyother goal from the field counts 2 points for the team whos basket it is thrown.
This may be sufficient but there has to be better wording on the FEDS part.
