Students are out at PE playing basketball. All parties are having fun until Student A bumps into Student B and shoots the ball in the hoop. Student B yells, "Did you just push me!?"

How many CICO points did Student B not earn?
(**Bonus points if you can guess why Student A most likely earned all of theirs**)
