I have always been under believe that the Pitcher has to have the ball in the circle before the the batter reaches 1st for 8-7-4 to be inafect.

I am only looking for NFHS Interpretation.

Thanks in advance
If I understand the question correctly, you are saying that the pitcher does not have the ball in the circle when the runner breaks for 2nd, correct. If that is the case, then I have absolutely nothing except a possible play at 2nd.
