I think their thought is that the closer they can get their toe/foot to the line, the quicker they can step to box out. Reality is; they're off balance and can't step out with as much power. And they could only learn that from watching another player do it. Surely, nobody is coaching that.
They're teenagers and know more about rebounding than the boys team, the coaches, college players and NBA players. If you don't think they know more then you, then you should ask them. They'll tell you, or they'll roll their eyes, and that's sign language for "I'm smarter then you"
