Foul by Shooter After Returning to the Floor

[rekent]

Had a disagreement among a crew regarding the following play under NFHS rules. Would appreciate any input.

A1 drives down the middle of the lane and shoots a floater, returning to the floor and ending airborne shooter protections before A1's momentum causes A1 to run through B1 who has at all times maintained LGP in the path of A1. A1 illegally contacts B1: 1) prior to the ball passing through the basket; or 2) after the ball has passed through the basket. What is the call?

Crew decided (2-1) that in A) basket counts and A1 is assessed a common foul for an illegal push. Team B is awarded the ball at POI, which is an end-line running throw-in. In B) basket counts and no foul because the contact is neither intentional nor flagrant and was not committed on/by an airborne shooter.

Crew agreed unanimously on B), but on A) the contrary opinion was that because A1 was the shooter, the basket had to be canceled as with an airborne shooter PC foul.
