A1 is at the spot for a baseline throw-in.
(a)He throws the ball but B1 touches the ball after the release, but before it crosses the baseline plane. The ball hits the floor OOB. The official awards the ball back to A at the spot where the ball touched OOB.
(b)Before he throws the ball, B1 touches the ball while still in the possession. The official assesses a technical foul to B1.
Is the official correct?

Play (a):
NFHS: It is legal for B1 to touch the ball after A1 has released the ball for the throw-in and the ball is still on the out-of-bounds side of the boundary line. Out-of-bounds off of B1. Team A gets a designated spot throw-in closet to the spot where the ball touched out-of-bounds.
NCAA: It is a violation for B1 to break the plane of the boundary line before the throw-in crosses completely through the plane of the boundary plane.
Play (b):
NFHS: Technical foul charged to B1. If Team B has not been warned for breaking the plane during a throw-in a warning will also be issued to Team B.
NCAA: Technical foul charged to B1.
