You're right. But that wording was not intended to imply F4 - but I can see where you could conclude that. The
intent was to leave it vague as to
who handled the ball.
Actually this is not
my question. It was at a rules clinic. Some information was
purposely left out of the scenario that might be required to rule properly.
The students were expected to gather the pertinent information and then answer it.
You've guys have already hit upon two important pieces of information:
1) Did the defensive coach inform the PU of any substitutions?
ANSWER: No
2) Did F4 handle the ball on the double play?
ANSWER: No
But is there anything
else that is important?
