The NFHS and NCAA Men's/Women's Rules prohibit: i) a Player from Intentionally Kicking the Ball and ii) striking the Ball with the fist.

Did B1 do either (i) or (ii)!

No, but this action does not take place during the course of normal play inbounds. This is a throw-in and that must be done with the hand(s) as noted in the rules cited above.
