Play 2 - A1 B1 scramble under basket for loose ball. A1 is partially sitting and B1 is reaching for the ball. As A1 leans on her elbow, her ponytail is touching OB. Both players now have a firm grasp on the ball. In this case it was called a JUMP and went to AP

From what I understand, in BOTH cases the players were wearing legally approved hair control devices
OB I believe, in both cases. Hair is part of the body.

Thermodynamics? What does the heat energy of this girl's hair have to do with anything? Perhaps you mean the laws of momentum?
