You have nothing illegal by the screener, nothing illegal by the screened player. Check out the comment on Page 63 of the NFHS rulebook, namely the last paragraph on the page.
On this play, I have a foul on Price. He literally ran into and over Fife.
I'm with dlref on this one. The exact same play happened in one of the women's games last weekend (I've only been through the tapes once, can't remember at the moment wno it was) and in the replay it was clear that the defender did not see the screen. But in the play cited above, I thought the defender did push or "run through." I'd have called it. But them I'm only up to JV...
