10-6-1 doesn't define the only way to push, it gives one
example. It doesn't define the only way to charge,
it just gives an example. But I have even more compelling
evidence: if Tony & I agree, you can take it to the
bank!  [/B]

All we have to do to understand that a charge can be a foul, other than player control, is to look at the foul signals.
NFHS: #10 Pushing or charging and NCAA: #20 Pushing or charging are identical.
NFHS: #12 Player control and NCVAA: #22 are identical
If charging was only PC then it wouldn't be the same signal as Pushing; it would be the same signal as Player control.
