OK I am new to this forum stuff, need an opinion about NFHS collision rule.
I know it is way late, but I am still bothered over losing a Varsity catcher this last season on what I thought and most fans thought was a blatant spearing hit on my catcher. We lost him for the season. Brief description of play is: Tag attempt by opponent from 3rd, shallow left field fly-out and bullet return to catcher. Runner in no-mans land has time to stutter step as if he is going back to third, my catcher has possession of ball entire time and blocking plate, runner runs at catcher as if to slide catcher squats to make tag, runner spears catcher in shoulder/head area bending catcher back, up and over knee and ankle.
Question, should that runner have been ejected,,, yes or no. Please do not confuse the Pro game with NFHS rules.
