When the first serve was contacted by the Libero, the correct server at this point should have been B1, who was still on the court in a different position. When the second serve was contacted, the server (Libero) was the correct server.
Since B1 should have been replaced by the Libero, we have an illegal libero replacement which obviously was not caught until after service contact. Therefore, Rule 6-4 Penalty 2 applies:

Quote:
2. For an improper server or illegal replacement found in the set, loss of rally shall be awarded as soon as the improper server or illegal replacement is discovered and verified.
The 2 points served by the Libero are wiped out since the first serve involved an illegal libero replacement. Team B is assessed a Loss of Rally for the illegal replacement with their score at 6 points and Team A is awarded a penalty LOR. Score when everything is straightened out is Team A 9, Team B 6.

So, what did your partner do? And what would you have done?
