8th grade girls tonight in Washington state. Team A puts up a three, and while the ball is in midair, the power in the gym goes out. All the lights and scoreboard are gone, but we can see from the outside lighting that the ball goes through the hoop. Both coaches were friends, I gathered, and wanted to count the basket, so that's what we did. My question is though, is there an official ruling for this? I was prepared to count it since it was off the hand before the scoreboard went our, just like a buzzer beater.

And unlike in the big game, it only took us three minutes to get everything back on!
