I know it's the wrong forum, but to steal from the football forum, "touching" precedes "catching," which also makes tremendous sense, and this logic could theoretically be applied here. And I've also had the NCAA situation read to me that was cited above, and think it makes pretty good sense and is clearly applicable in the OP situation.
