10 seconds - team control

[Refsmitty]

Team A dribbling ball in backcourt. Being pressed, loses control due to a touch by Team B, ball is touched by Team B but never controlled. Team A gets the ball back but is not over division line at 10 seconds... I've got a violation - right or wrong?

No biggie. Good call, though.
