I haven't reffed lax in about 4 years now. When I officiated, a team had 10 seconds to clear the ball from its defensive box (NCAA rules), and then there was no count from the top of the defensive box to midfield. While watching the MD/Georgetown NCAA quarterfinal yesterday, however, I heard the announcer mention "20 seconds to get over midfield". Has the rule changed? If so, when? Just curious.

Rule change for this year, you get 20 seconds to cross midfield and you can go back into the defensive box. The 20 seconds is kept via the beeper, black box on officials belt. NCAA only, NFHS is still what you described.
