I don't recall that leaping was of particular concern back then, although the crow hop was a known violation. I'd guess if the women were pitching from 46', they'd be allowed to leap [w/ the toe pointed down, of course - but that's another discussion].

I think it would be best if that started at NCAA and went down. IMO, ASA is prep ball for NCAA and should confirm closely to their rules in that regard.
