Here's the question. If the defender reaches across the line and fouls the inbounder while he's still holding the ball, which is an intentional personal foul on that player, is that also a DOG warning? If so, and it was that team's second one, could you have both the intentional personal foul and a team technical foul for second DOG warning? This came up this past weekend during a kids rec game I was monitoring.

If there was a prior warning, then only the intentional personal foul gets penalized. A warning is also given only if the team has not previously been warned. All of that is stated in the four rulings under 10.3.10 in the NFHS Case Book.

I would charge a technical foul using the reasoning already expressed by JAR.
