You'd really call a technical foul here? If a player continues to walk everytime they touch the ball - will you call a technical for that too? It's a violation - period. If I were B's coach, I'd have a different player commit the violation everytime but IMO it's sheer genius in the strategy department. I think the only way you could whack the kid here is for making a travesty of the game and that's stretching it. Do I, as an official, like having to call it every time? No - but it's still a great strategy on the coach's part and no way I'd call a technical.
I also agree with one of the previous posts on the double violation and going to the AP.
