If I knew my partner was a 2nd year official, I would put him in the know about coverage areas depending on where the ball is. Since we teach this exact play in our unit, our guys probably would know it already.
No one has mentioned it because that's not right according to Diagram 7 on the top of page 24 in the 2003-05 NFHS Officials Manual.

I fully expect the Trail to help on the back side of the FT lane (opposite block), but making calls on the near block is not recommended.
