The play in this post has to correct answers, depending upon whether the game is being played using NFHS or NCAA rules.
NFHS: Violation by Team A.
NCAA: Legal.
The best part is the the rule in both codes are the same word for word. But the rulings are spelled out in an NFHS Casebook Situation and a NCAA Approved Ruling.

The NCAA has added a rule making this (catch the throw in while airborne and pass to a teammate in the backcourt) illegal. See 9-12.7 Interestingly, as I read it, the new rule applies only on a jump ball and a throw-in. Apparently, a defensive player in the air can intercept a pass and pass the ball to the BC without it being a violation.
