1. What are the odds of this happening?
2. If there is a mistake, couldn't it just as easily be in your favor?

1. Middle school officials, middle school scorers, and player #s 23, 32, 33. Sounds like it could easily happen to me.
2. No. With the premise being alot of activity with 23, 32, and 33, a mistake of too whom the foul gets charged, always end with one of them getting an extra foul and one having less, which then can turn into, setting a top player needlessly and progress to same top player fouling out. Much better to have 3 top players available with foul counts of 4,3,3 at end of game than only two top players with fould counts of 3,2.
