Team A has the ball at the endline going the other way. A1 throws the ball to A2 standing in the key at the other end...the ball is overthrown as A2 trys to catch the ball but is not able to. A2 does slightly touch the ball as the ball goes OOB. Lead blows the whistle and points for the ball to go to Team B.

Problem:

No time has run off the clock. The clock operator did not start the clock as he did not think A2 touched the ball. The clock operator was not watching the official that was administering the throw-in. (Did not really matter as that official did not chop the clock...he was not sure if A2 touched the ball)

You are the R...what do you do?
Go to half-time; my visual count was 1 second.
