Based on the coach's reaction to the call, I went to my partner and asked if the ball was last touched in the FC by the defense. He said it was, so I changed to an inadvertent whistle. Wish my partner had come to me right away, but I guess he assumed I had seen something else.
This is one where the L should be making the backcourt call (or not)...assuming there is no close play at the division line that would need the T's position to see. Short of that, the L could indicate to the trail, with a tip signal, that the ball was indeed tipped coming out of the L's primary.
