I think you have some As and Bs mixed up.

A1 is injured. B1 gets the rebound and goes to the other end. We all agree that (absent "serious" injury) the play continues so far. Now B1 releases an unsuccessful try (because I think we're all going to agree on what to do if the try is good).

Do you kill it as soon as the try is released (and go to the arrow)? As soon as someone gets the rebound (and give it back to that team)? As soon as A gets the rebound, but you'll leave it live if B gets the rebound? Something else?

FED is clear that the correct (by rule) choice is the first above.

NCAA, not so clear (to me).

And, yes, this play happened.
