A1 releases the ball trying to lob over B1. B1 jumps extending his hands over the line and bats the ball back into A1 hands. B1 lands back inbound Call?

Legal play in an NFHS game. OOB violation by A1. Team B will be awarded a throw-in.

Class B technical foul in an NCAA mens game. 2FTs and resume at the POI (another throw-in for Team A).

This is a small difference in the two rule sets. The boundary restriction imposed upon the defender ends at different times. Under NFHS rules, once the thrower releases the ball, the defender may break the plane. Under NCAA rules, the defender must wait for the ball to cross the boundary plane before contacting it.

Interesting variance
