I had someone tell me this weekend (no names mentioned) that in women's college the 5-seconds holding rule doesn't include a condition that it be closely guarded. IS THAT TRUE!?!?! I thought it was a closely guarded rule, not just a holding rule. This person insisted that to hold the ball for 5 seconds is a violation, regardless of whether the ball handler is closely guarded.

"No name" was wrong.

I agree. Also, another couple of little wrinkles - it can happen anywhere on the court, not just the front court, and to be considered closely guarded the distance is just 3 feet, not 6 feet like NCAAM and NFHS.
Aw, go ahead and give up "no name"! Is it anybody we know? It's only just us talkin'; no one else will know...
