A) the ball bounces and A1 catches the ball after one bounce;
B) A1 catches the ball out of the air without moving the pivot foot.
The ref continues the 5 second closely guarded count in both cases.
If the ref correct?
This happened in a girls varsity game on Saturday I worked.

I'm viewing A as an interrupted dribble, therefore no player control and the count would stop.
B is more difficult...but if what I'm envisioning in my head is correct, I'm probably also viewing it as a loss of PC, but I would listen to (and will in the remainder of this thread) a case for not.
