What I'm unclear of, and seek your attempts at helping me to understand more fully, is the application of that in view of the statement found in 10-6-rule 10 Summary point 7., which states, "In case of a...false multiple foul, each foul carries its own penalty."

What penalty, if any, is issued or carried out for the first foul committed? The reward of the ball OB seems to have been negated by the consequence of the second foul. My reason says, clear the lane for the 1 and 1, then return to the previous spot to administer an OB opportunity merited by the first of the two fouls committed.

Would that be the order of things if the second foul was committed after the ball was put at the disposal of the thrower, but not before, perhaps?

My reason, of course, must fit within the stated rules.

Your normally reasoned response is, as always, appreciated.

You can't go back and award the throw-in penalty for the first foul because of this NFHS rule:

RULE 8, SECTION 7 PENALTY-ADMINISTRATION SEQUENCE
Penalties for fouls are administered in the order in which the fouls occurred.

That would conflict with what you desire to do.
