Technical Shooter
This is for NFHS....When a Technical is called on team B...ANYONE on Team A can shoot the technical, including anyone on the bench, However, I cannot find that in writing in the rule book or the case book..Can anyone confirm I am correct and possibly point out where it states it?? Thank you in advance

NFHS 8-2 ATTEMPTING TECHNICAL-FOUL FREE THROWS
The free throws awarded because of a technical foul may be attempted by any player of the offended team, including an eligible substitute or designated starter. The coach or captain shall designate the free thrower(s). |
In addition to what Tony quoted from the rules book (the correct cite is actually 8-3), the NFHS issued the following interpretation back in 2003-04:
SITUATION 13: Technical foul shooter A1 attempts the first free throw and substitute A6 attempts the second. RULING: Legal. Technical foul free throws may be attempted by any player or eligible substitute. Therefore, two different players may attempt the throws. (8-3) |
