I disagree with the previous posters. The ball still had frontcourt status when it was touched by A2 in the backcourt. Therefore, A2 caused the ball to go into the backcourt and a violation occured. This is clear under the wording of the NCAA rule and, although the Fed rule is written differently, I do not believe there is any diffence in interpretation of the two rules.
You're wrong in both rulesets, Stan. It's not a backcourt violation.See NFHS rule 9-9-1. B1, not A2, was the last player to touch it in the front court before the ball went into the backcourt. The NCAA language is basically the same.
