What would you do?
Game before mine, interesting situation.
Play A1 fouls out with under a minute to go. tie game. ( High school ) With less than 10 seconds to go, A calls a T.O. Players return to the floor. A1 scores the winning goal. Officials leave the floor thinking that Team A had won the game. They are notified after they leave the confines of the playing area that A1 had fouled out earlier, had not reported and was the player that scored the winning basket. what would you do? |

Actually, once the buzzer sounds to end the game, this is a done deal.
10-5-4 penalty: Penalized if discovered while being violated.

I'm not clear on the facts. Did A1 leave the game upon the 5th foul, or did the table and officials not notify the coach and A1 played the entire rest of the game? OR, did A1 leave the game then sneak back in after the TO?

As far as I can see, there's nothing to do except for the losing team to appeal it to the state office. The state may, or may not, choose to do something about it.

I have to ask; how many would pick this up? I've had games where 3 or 4 players foul out, and I couldn’t necessarily pick them out of a lineup. If the table didn’t tell me they had 5, I wouldn't know it. If they come back in later, I wouldn’t necessarily catch it unless the table caught it. If they sneak in following a timeout, I might not catch it without the table telling me. 5 players go to the bench, and 5 come out. That's generally all I'm looking for.

I'd handle it by going out to have a beverage with the other crews I usually meet on Friday nights. Drinking my beverage, I'd tell the rest of the officials how we screwed up, and take a lot of crap from them for screwing up. Then I'd watch the papers to see what the state decided to do about the problem while crossing my fingers that the assignor doesn't drop me from his scheduling list next season.
