K can always advance a scrimmage kick anytime it is behind the neutral zone. In this case they advanced it for a 1st down.

It was no longer a scrimmage kick. The moment K12 recovers the blocked kick it became a run. The question is, does Fed have a 4th down fumble rule that requires the player who fumbles to be the only K player to advance the ball? I say there is no such rule under Fed, but that's just a guess.
