B coach exercised her opinion that I shouldn't have.

I was table side so I had time right away to point out to the coach it was poked away, but it was one of those moments where a wave of doubt hits just as you open your mouth. Kind of like as I'm typing this out and really think about the situation.

From your description A1 was the last to touch the ball before it hit the backcourt, the division line, and then the first to touch it after it bounced there. The coach was right. You failed to call a violation.
