The official awards the ball to team A and sets the arrow to team A. Is the official correct?
This question is from the IAABO computer program. I got it wrong but can't find out exactly why. I remember this rule changing a few years ago but don't save all the old books in my attic.

The first legal possession is by B on the throw in. Therefore the arrow should be set in A's favor.

mj - Correct-NFHS, Team A gets the ball. Team B gets the arrow. It was changed a few years ago as it was penalizing the violating team twice.
