NFHS "Low Block" on defense

NFHS-Looking for some help with low contact on the defense. It was a point of emphasis this year, that defense player's can not simply "cut' lead blockers. We had a HS Varsity coach all over our WH last week about this. I did not see the play as I am the HL and it went in to the opposite corner on a try.

But as I read further in to it, it also talks extensively about the low contact on the defense being legal on a runner, or "pretended runner."

This leaves lots to interpretation.


So I do not know if the defender just submarined the Fullback or tackled him or what. I guess my question is, what do we need to be looking for to make sure we get this right. Because it will cause some waves when called.
