I believe NFHS completely rewrote rule 8 for 2002 to make it more ASA-like.
Anyhow, ASA has the same wording as TwoBits quoted. (ASA 8-2-F).
THE BATTER-RUNNER IS OUT when the batter-runner ... interferes with a dropped third strike...
This case is not covered in either the ASA POEs or the ASA Case Book.
As unfortunate as this is for the batter-runner, the rule says she is out. Intent is not required.
