Broken Net...

Freshman boys, 2nd qtr, team A with the ball, pass ball to post player on baseline about three feet behind block. I am the lead (officiated three years), Post player squares up and shoots (being defended closely) I take the shooter all the way to the floor. After shooter returns to floor I glance over and see A-2 in perfect rebounding position ( I was sure the ball went through, but the net got me because it never moved) A-2 never attempts to rebound and B-1 grabs ball and starts up court. I blow the whistle and kill it right there. As I head out to my partner (first year, second game) I look up and notice the net is broken, I ask my partner if he saw it go through "I wasn't looking" was his reply. I head to the table, of course Coach A is pleading it went in, The AD was there and I asked if he could replace the net. No problem, While the net is being replaced I talked to the Official timer and scorer and asked if they had seen the play and did the ball go through as I thought. They both said "yes". Just about the time that the net if being finished up I tell coach B that his team will get the ball out of bounds on the baseline with an unrestricted throw in. He is upset that I talked to the table to confirm that the ball had indeed gone through, even though Coach B agreed that it was the correct call. I just told him we are moving on coach. Any thoughts?
