A1 loses his or her contact lens during play. During the next dead ball, the lens is found after a 30-second search. A1 replaces the lens immediately and wishes to remain in the game. Is that allowed?

A. No, A1 must be substituted out of the game.
B. Yes, A1 may remain in the game.
C. A1 may only remain in the game if team A calls a timeout.

I'm guessing B

I will say B also.

I am not sure about high school, but 30 seconds seems a tad long for college. I am going with C for College. I am going to assume that high school would allow a little more time, so I am going with B for High School.

B. I would guess it falls in the same category as a player bleeding. I believe they have 30 seconds to stop the blood.
