This happened in a JUCO women's game, however I would like the ruling for both College and Federation. Please give any and all rule references.
Situation:
After a made basket and a timeout, there are 4.6 seconds remaining on the clock in OT. Team A is down by 1 point and has the ball for a running baseline throw-in.
A1 throws the ball across midcourt where it is first touched by A2 who is standing out of bounds.
Partner blows her whistle and immediately points the other direction.
I glance at the clock and see it is now at 4.0 seconds.
Two questions are:
1) Should we reset the clock to 4.6 seconds?
2) Where does team B's throw-in take place?
Thanks for any and all answers! I had two supervisors "discussing" the play when I told them about it.
What we ended up doing in the game:
1) reset the clock to 4.6
2) baseline spot throw-in for Team B

1. You had definite knowledge of the time, since the clock should never have started.
2. Unless you have a technical foul on the Team A player out-of-bounds, the throw-in was completed under 9-2-2 ("touched by another player (inbounds or out of bounds)"), thus the throw-in is at midcourt.
I think.
