No, they didn't. They based their action and shot on what showed on the clock...they thought they had time to make another pass and did. The clock completely screwed them.

Probably. Probably not.

NCAA officials have this easy. They can use the monitor and a stopwatch to determine whether or not the foul counts and how much time should remain in the game.

NFHS officials can't go that route. Let's discuss what you should do if this happens in your high school game. To me that's more interesting.

I don't think they have it so easy on this play. There was no going back to make it right. It isn't like the clock ran extra after a whistle where they can use the monitor to get it fixed. When the clock stops that early and isn't noticed until after the shot, there is no easy to it. The result isn't "right" no matter what they can do.
