BRD #329
Pete is correct that the NCAA has changed their wording related to obstruction. See #329 in 2002 Carl Childress' Baseball Rules Difference for details. Here is a brief clip:
NCAA: Obstruction is the act of any fielder who, "clearly without possession of the ball",, blocks "the base (plate) or base line" and impedes the progress of any runner. (2-Obstruction AR 8-7b)
