Correcting error

So proceed to the other end and award bonus FTs to the Team B player who was fouled by A2.

On this one, I really wonder if the NFHS was really being loose with their terminology. It seems that, in principle, they may want that foul ignored too. I know that the FT has technically ended, but it could conceptually be considered to be part of the FT activity until the ball is rebounded. The idea behind voiding a foul involving a correctable error like this is that the foul would have never occurred had there not been an erroneous FT awarded. And, where is such a foul going to occur...it is almost always going to occur on a rebound.
