I heard it use like this :

The away team fouled the home team as a way of getting some of their players off the court.

In basketball, you have to commit a foul or call a time out if you want to make a substitution.
Is the use of 'as a way of' correct? I thought it would have been better to use 'so that'.
Thank you!
