Prior to the jump ball to begin the extra period, the scorer counts up the points recorded for the 4th quarter in his book. He finds that Team A only has 58 points and that the scoreboard operator must have mistakenly posted an extra point sometime during the final quarter, and alerts the referee.
Team A had possession for the last 38 seconds of the 4th quarter and missed a try for goal at the horn.
Team A coach states that he would not have held the ball for the final 38 seconds of the quarter if he had known that his team was behind by one.
Make your ruling as the R.
