You're trying to apply NCAA rules to a discussion of NFHS situations.
S rule 4-24-8
It is not legal to swing arms and elbows excessively. This occurs when:
a) Arms and elbows are swung while using the shoulders as a pivot, and the speed of the extended arms and elbose is in excess of the rest of the body as it rotates on the hips or pivot foot.
b)
the aggressiveness with which the arms and elbows are swung could cause injury to another player if contacted.
You might serve a suspension if you try to argue a rule using a ruleset that doesn't apply. Would that cost you a game check?
