Throw in in FC by team A. B1 jumps over A2 and touches the ball but can not secure the ball, he slaps it and hits A2 in the front of the jersey and rolls into BC. A2 runs into BC and gets the ball. I have BC.
At half time, partner says since no one had control, there was no BC, I understand that, but B1 touched the ball and knocked it off A2 into the BC. I have 2 people in FC touching the ball, I have FC status for the ball. looking at case book 9.9.1D is the closest thing I have.
Thoughts?

Your partner is correct. When the NFHS extended the definition of team control a couple of seasons ago to include the throw-in, it did so with poor wording and this caused some immediate questions. In response to one of those questions the NFHS issued a clarification that the new team control rule didn't change how backcourt, 3-sec, 5-sec, and ten-sec violations were to be called. It only impacted fouls by the throwing team.
