The violation is being the first player to touch or be touched by the ball after the ball has regained backcourt status. A2's touching causes two things to happen simulanteously: 1) Causing the ball to return to the backcourt, and 2) being the first player to touch it after the ball returned to the backcourt. It is a pretty simple concept.

Correct you are on this statement. However (in the Sit 10 from the NFHS), who was the last to touch the ball before the ball returned to the backcourt? B. There fore, there is no violation.
