Situation #2: (Different game)
Five seconds left in first quarter. Team A inbounds ball and is being pressed. A player from Team B comes over and gives Player A1 (who is dribbling) a pretty good wack. I blow my whistle exactly at the same time the horn blows to end the quarter. Count the foul??? I let it go, but after further thought, I know that the foul happened a split second before the horn sounded. Your thoughts??

Thanks for your help,

You answered your own question as to whether you had a foul. Your whistle sounded at the same time that the horn sounded. Your sounded your whistle after you observed the foul, therefore the foul occured before the end of the quarter. Charge and penalize the foul.
