Sorry
Snake~eyes however, your'e ruling is incorrect!
The result of the play is an unsuccessful try by A.

Tundra Ref's ruling on his play is the correct as
a safety during a try can only occur in B's end zone!

The result of the play is an unsuccessful try by A. Team B can not score during a try!
Both of snake eyes sample plays result in unsuccessful trys for A (or K).
Team B (or K) CAN NOT SCORE during a try under current NFHS Rules.
Therefore, for clarification, if the ball (somehow) were to become dead in A's endzone (97 years the other way) it would not matter who was in possession as the result of the play would be an unsuccesful try by A (or R).
Additionally, (as Bob Floyd noted) and
only if you officiate in Oregon is there an experimental rule during 2004 and 2005 that allows the defense to score during a try!
If you officiate anywhere else, the rulings above are correct.
