Juulie, I think the best way to look at this is as two separate actions. Once the ball is grazed by a player on the court, the throw-in is over. We don't know what's going to happen after that. If we were to go by not resetting the arrow, then what happens when B intercepts and travels or B intercepts and commits a foul? There would have to be a case made that A should get the arrow back.

Also, along the line of separate actions, I tend to think that (because a kick must be intentional) the determination of a kick must come after the initial contact. As such, they are two separate entities.
