Or would you consider these two occurrences to be at the same time? I am probably reading too much into the question??

Thanks in advance!
I am just want to say that, if a sub becomes a player when the ball becomes live, then he should still be a player after it's live. Quibbling over the metaphysical distinction between being and becoming is above the NFHS paygrade. True.
