I find it extremely hard to believe with 4 possible open entry points on the field for a ball to be placed back in, that at no time in 1 minute was there not a "safe opportunity" to put one back in.

And yes, this did happen in a Week 5 regional.
From what I have seen and heard at many regionals that I have attended, is that the popped ball stays on the field and the new ball is supposed to be placed as close as possible to the popped ball. In many cases this was not true and the new ball was just placed on the field with the easiest access point from where the extra balls were being stored.
