While I was reading the NCAA FPSR, I came up with a question for you guys.

NCAA Section-4

C. Actions by a runner are illegal and interference shall be called if;

(3) The runner's raised leg makes contact higher than a fielder's knee when in a standing position.

I find a certain amount of ambiguity here. It's almost as if they're saying it's alright to spike the runner with the lead foot, as long as it's done at a point beneath the knee.

Why was this action put in the FPSR in the first place?

Whether the contact was below the knee or above the knee, if the play was altered, the action is still illegal.


Tim.
