My first thought was to assume the officials got it right, so I started thinking about which scenario could lead to the result.

Bob's works, and I thought of a similar one. A1 (the shooter) was fouled in the act of shooting, but traveled after the foul, thus making the ball dead and ending the try.

Now, if either of these situations happened, I would expect to be giving a quick explanation to both coaches due to the unusual nature of the call.

As for not providing you the explanation, doubleringer provides some good examples of why that may have happened. There are at least two more that I can think of, and they are related.

1. You've been complaining about multiple calls before this point, and the official was simply tired of explaining things to you.

2. Your league has a bunch of coaches and players who complain constantly, and the official is tired of it. This may not be a reflection of you, but of the league itself.
