RULING: When a foul and a try for goal sequentially occur at the expiration of time on the shot clock, the official shall use the monitor to determine whether the foul and try occurred before the sounding of the shot clock horn. When it is determined that the foul occurred before the expiration of the shot clock, the foul shall be penalized, and the goal shall count. With the use of the monitor, the officials shall be permitted to put the exact time on the game clock when the foul occurred.

But what about in games when there is not a monitor?
