At one of our last HS meetings of the year last night, an official brought up a situation which sparked lots of debate...he got it and the interpretation he brought off of the officiating.com website...here it is (as closely as I can remember)..."A4 attempts a dunk and misses. A4 hangs on the rim when there is no danger of injury. While hanging onto the rim with one hand, A4 is able to catch the ball with the other hand and attempts to dunk it again. What is your ruling?"

After much discussion, the ruling that was read - and quoted as a NF ruling - said that this would result in TWO technical fouls being called (even though he never let go of the rim and grabbed it again) and the player being ejected...I am having a hard time with this interpretation...can't find anything in the case book or rule book one way or the other...thought I would get the input of all of you on this board...so???
