They didn't gain an advantage as the press was still in about the same defensive position (after B2 got the ball, he was at about the same spot that B1 was). I would have given the other team the same treatment. Now, in a Varsity game, I'd call the violation, especially after the thoughts on this post. Thanks.

Maybe it's just me, but I think the violation is as important at an underclass level as at the varsity level. If you don't call the violation in the underclass games, how do the players learn to do it right at the varsity level. If it's a league that asks refs to give instruction you might blow the whistle and explain and have a do-over, but in a HS game I think you need to make the call. Otherwise when the kids graduate to varsity they will think the play is legal.
