There was a loose ball that looked like it went out of bounds. It was saved.

The player with the ball who had been dribbling, stopped dribbling and picked up the ball. His coached yelled keep going, and he then dribbled again and went and shot a layup.
So, now we have a double dribble to contend with. The officials got together and determined since everyone quit playing, they were going back to the spot when the horn sounded and resuming from there.

Too bad. The crew decided not to stop play for an inadvertent horn. Ok, that's actually good. The kids stop and the ball handler ends his dribble. The crew should now have a whistle, consult with the table, and then resume at the POI.
Instead the crew allowed the player to have an illegal second dribble after which he scored. They failed to penalize this violation. It's now too late and is just a missed call. Yet now they stop play and decide to not only cancel the goal, but rewind to even prior to the illegal dribble!!! Yikes!
