same time, but are not committed by opponents against each other.

PENALTIES: (Rule 10 Summary)
1. No free throws:
a. For each common foul before the bonus rule is in effect.
b. For a player-control or team-control foul.
c. For double personal or technical fouls (point of interruption).
d. For simultaneous personal or technical fouls by opponents (point of
interruption).

and from the NFHS case book:

SIMULTANEOUS FOUL
4.19.10 SITUATION: B1 fouls dribbling A1 near the division line. At approximately
the same time, A2 fouls B2 in the lane near Team A's basket. RULING: This
is a simultaneous personal foul. B1 and A2 are charged with personal fouls. The
ball shall be put back in play at the point of interruption. Team A is awarded a
throw-in on the sideline nearest to where the ball was located when the fouls
occurred. (7-5-3b; 4-36)

Nevada:

Dang it! Honestly, I got so caught up in the POI part of the situation that I completely forgot about the penalty summary at the end of Rule 10 (both NFHS and NCAA Men's/Women's). But you didn't need to bring up the defintion of simultaneous fouls, I said that the OP was a SF which is a type of FDF.

THEREFORE: Team B gets the ball for a throw-in along the endline as the result of A1's successful field goal attempt.

BUT: I still like the Ancient Days better, .

AND: I agree with you that both fouls need to be charged if only to prevent further problems (read retaliation) later in the game.
