Ok the article in Referre refers to the NEW NFHS ruling that the ball need only be in the pitcher's possesion for the the look-back rule to be in effect (8-7-1 in the new rule). The editorial revision intends to create a standard interpretation so there would be fewer arguments. That was in 8-4-2k Note in old rule book.

The previous rule stated that the ball was to be in either hand. It is possible for the the ball to be in her possesion, but not in either hand(as in senario above). However just having the ball/glove in the circle does not constitute possession. For example the ball/glove in circle laying on the ground.

Becky does not state what rules but I would guess Ncaa since most of her articles tend to refer to Ncaa.
