Was this noticed during the first dead ball after the clock has started? Sounds like that to me based on what you said. Just go back to shooting the second FT and then go back to the POI when you noticed the mistake.

Was we right or not? I was a little embarrased about the whole thing. I been doing Varsity games for 10 years and I just could not remember the ruling, but I sure was glad it was Junior High. We did catch the mistake before we had two dead balls.
There are many rules that you will never learn very well until they happen to you. The correctable error rule is one of those rules that a lot of people are shaky on.
