Am I the only one who thinks it would be the right thing to do to count the basket and go from there? Neither official "stopped play" after the horn went off, so play goes on. Only a whistle stops the play. The refs were to blame for the situation - game awareness. How many times has a horn gone off inadvertently and you just tell the kids to play on? The rule that was quoted previously is irrelevant because the refs never stopped the play with a whistle.

Good catch, Smitty!
Good call, Smitty!
