2014 NFHS part 1 test?
 

New here. Anyone have a link to the Part I basketball test for 2014?

It's strictly to be used as practice to get ready for the upcoming season here in Mississippi.

I don't even think the test is open yet.

I just took it.

Sorry, guess it's my state then. It's not open here yet.

Speaking of the test. This question was a topic of discussion. Some said yes, some said no.

A player control foul by the airborne shooter can occur after the ball is dead.

Which rule set are you using?

The underlying question is about when the ball becomes dead vs when an airborne shooter ceases to be an airborne shooter in addition to whether a personal foul (that is not intentional or flagrant) can be called after the ball is dead.

When does an airborne shooter cease to be an airborne shooter?

Can anything make the ball dead before that time?

Well. since the whole thread is under "NFHS Test" .... ;)

True for NFHS and NCAA-Women's.

False for NCAA-Men's.

MTD, Sr.

Uhm, you had officials saying no?

Yes sir. I said the answer was true. Some held fast.

Going off of memory here, but showing them the definition of a PC foul, as well as when a ball becomes dead should resolve this.

Careful...

B1 obtains a legal position in A1's path before A1 becomes airborne. A1 jumps and releases the ball on a try for goal. Before returning to the floor, airborne shooter A1 charges into B1. (a) Before the foul by A1, B2 commits basket interference; or (b) after the foul on A1, B2 slaps the ball on its downward flight.

RULING: In (a), both the violation and the foul are penalized. The basket interference by B2 causes the ball to become dead immediately. The violation is penalized by awarding the two points. The player-control foul on A1 is also charged. Team B is awarded the ball for a throw-in anywhere along the end line. A defensive-goaltending or basket-interference violation committed prior to a player-control foul does not contradict the general statement that when a player-control foul occurs that player cannot score. In the case of a defensive violation, it is the violation which results in awarding the score. In (b), the ball becomes dead and the try ends immediately when the player-control foul on A1 occurs. The action of B2 is ignored as goaltending cannot occur after the try has ended. The ball is awarded to Team B for a throw-in from a designated spot out of bounds closest to where the foul occurred. (4-12-1; 6-7-4; 6-7-9 Exception; 7-5-4a; 9-11)

Are you saying on a dunk (the ball is dead after it goes through the basket) and subsequent PC foul by airborne shooter (before returning to the floor) contacting a defender that acquired LGP before shooter went airborne cannot happen?

In this scenario ball is dead and PC foul occurs. Am I missing something?

No, we're saying this is the precise situation where a PC foul can be called for contact that occurs while the ball is dead.

"Some," however, apparently disagree in Oklahoma.

(I'm guessing "some" are not just in OK.)
