NFHS Rules
Team A is trying to run a play with the guard pulling. QB tries to hand the ball to his running back. The ball hits on the hip of the running back and pops loose. While the ball is in the air (only inches from the running back) the OL guard that was pulling catches the ball and runs with it. The Referee stops the play and says the OL can not advance the ball. No penalty was called. What is the correct ruling.
