2 or 3 point field goal?
This was posted on Reddit and I'm trying to figure out the answer.
Is this a 2 or a 3? If I'm reading the NFHS case book correctly, it's a 3 point field goal as the position of the defender does not matter even though this isn't a try. 5.2.1 SITUATION C: A1 throws the ball from behind the three-point line. The ball is legally touched by: (a) B1 who is in the three-point area; (b) B1 who is in the two-point area; (c) A2 who is in the three-point area; or (d) A2 who is in the two-point area. The ball continues in flight and goes through A's basket. RULING: In (a) and (b), three points are scored since the legal touching was by the defense and the ball was thrown from behind the three-point line. In (c), score three points since the legal touch by a teammate occurred behind the three-point line. In (d), score two points since the legal touch by a teammate occurred in the twopoint area. Someone in the comments said it's actually a college game so the next question is, what is the ruling in women's NCAA basketball? Thanks Edit: And yikes, that was not a good pass. Does that count as 2 or 3? |
