I am plunging into the NCAA rules at this point and I would like some help. I found the NCAA Refresher Test on the internet as well as the answers. Some of these answers seem suspect to me. I will give you some of the questions that either I don't understand or that I thought the answer key seemed wrong. Please help. Keep in mind I have been using FIBA rules, so a lot of this is new for me.
Here goes:
1. During A-1's interrupted dribble in the frontcourt, the officials call a three-second violation.
I thought the answer was no, but my key says yes.
2. While A1's try is in flight, a double technical foul is assessed. The try is successful. The official awards no free throws and puts the ball in play at the point of interruption.
I thought yes, key says no.
3. The trail official bounces the ball to A1 for a throw-in. Before A1 catches the ball, B2 fouls A2. The official rules this a personal foul.
Key says yes, I thought the ball only became live when it was at the disposal of the thrower.
4. A1 rebounds the ball and then throws the ball out in front of him. After the ball hits the floor, A1 catches the ball and dribbles. The official rules this a legal play.
Key says yes. Isn't this a double dribble if he catches it and dribbles again?
5. A1 and A2 foul B1 at approximately the same time and the official rules this a multiple foul. The official awards B1 one free throw for each foul and plays off the make or miss as with any normal free throw.
key says yes, I have no clue why?
PS, in NCAA, does a game HAVE to begin with a jump ball? In FIBA it does.
Thanks, Jay.
