PENALTY FOR DOUBLE FOULS CHANGED TO POINT OF INTERRUPTION (7-5-9, 4-36): The penalty for double personal, double technical and simultaneous fouls has been changed from an alternating-possession throw-in to resuming play from the point of interruption. A new definition of “point of interruption” has also been added to the rules book. If the point of interruption cannot be determined e.g., unsuccessful try in flight, the alternating-possession arrow will be used.
It appears that the NFHS has chosen to differ from the NCAA here. They have done what I asked earlier in this thread and just gone to POI for double personal fouls. The NCAA goes back to the team in control without a reset of the shot clock. Therefore, if this comment accurately reflects the wording of the actual new rule, when there is a double personal foul during a try for goal which is successful, we will NOT use the AP arrow. The team that was to receive the throw-in for being scored upon will still receive the ball. If the try is unsuccessful, the AP arrow is used.
