Since you're past the 10 minute mark, changing the a team member's or player's number is a team technical.
That's where I have a problem. It doesn't say we are past the ten minute mark (then I would totally agree it's B); however, it says we are at the ten minute mark.

I would pick B, but you make a good point about "at" versus "after".
I did not notice that detail.
There is an art to test question writing!

I disagree that the distinction between "at" and "after" is relevant. If the clock shows 10:00, then the "10 minute time limit" specified by 10-1-1 and 10-1-2 has elapsed.

NFHS has been known to "stretch."

I disagree. At least 10 minutes >= 10 minutes

If it's discovered at 10:00, is it going to be corrected before 9:59?

Probably not...but that's not the question.

I think we can feel rather confident that the correct answer to the question does not hinge on the difference between 10:00.000000000000 and the next femtosecond. The question is talking about things the official notices AT the 10:00 mark, when they are supposed to check these things, which is also the moment things must be set by. If they are wrong AT THAT MOMENT, they are wrong according to the rule that they are testing.

Right. Now count down from 20:00.

If you count down the 10 minute time limit from 20:00, that's going to expire when it ticks from 10:01 to 10:00.

So if you're at 10:00, the time limit has already expired.
