I know of another case (football again) where the state ruled the score was final even after it was reviewed on film to be incorrect.
So who knows.

It seems to me that it is either a "clerical error" or a protest situation. I can't be a "clerical error" until the game ends, and then after everyone goes home, it is a protest situation and not correctable.
