Hi guys. I'm a rookie here, so take it easy on me.

When I first read this I thought if I saw this play full speed I'm thinking I would have let it go as if the offensive player were stripped of the ball. There's virtually no contact, so there is no foul. You can't rule it a block and there is no tie up situation. I have a hard time calling traveling when both players were in contact with the ball (it was sandwiched between them). You could argue it was dislodged. I think a "let the kids play" would be in order based on the premise that two guys were hustling for the ball.
As crew posted above,A1 did not release the ball.He wasn't stripped and the ball wasn't dislodged.A1 went up in the air with player control of the ball,and when he landed he still had player control of the ball(and never lost player control of the ball).With no body contact=no foul,the only calls you could make are travelling or a jump ball-and you gotta call one of them.A no-call isn't really an option in this case.
Btw,welcome to the board.
