Here's the rule
Sorry for the somewhat ambiguous pronouns in my previous post.
NCAA 9-2-4:
When there is a lane violation by a teammate of the free-thrower and an opponent:
(a.) When the first violation is by the free-thrower's team, the ball shall become dead when the violation occurs, no point shall be scored and play shall be resumed from a designated spot by awarding the ball to the opponent of the team that committed the first violation.
(b.) When the first violation is by the opponent of the free-thrower's team and the try is successful, the goal shall count and the violation shall be disregarded. When the try is not successful, the ball shall become dead when the free throw ends and a substitute throw shall be attempted by the same free-thrower under the same conditions as those for the original free throw.
(A.R. 9.) A1 and B1 violated the lane lines simultaneously during A2's free throw. Ruling: When the official is unable to discern which player committed the first violation, the ball shall be awarded at a designated spot to the team entitled to the alternating-possession throw-in.
