Check the back of your Rule book...(the chart, differences between NFHS and NCAA)...
what you are stating is actually a NCAA rule.
Goaltending
NFHS....."Player touches the ball during a try/tap while it is in its downward flight entirely above the basket ring level and has the possibility of entering the basket in flight."
NCAA...."Same as NFHS and includes a ball that contacts the backboard when it is entierly above the ring level is considered to be on its downward flight."
