This is pretty much a text book legal screen against a moving opponent.
The text book says "The screener must stay within his/her vertical plane with a stance approximately shoulder width apart." That's rule 4-40-2(d) in the NFHS textbook, Mark. Sticking your chest INTO an opponent is NOT bracing for contact; it's being out of your vertical plane.
