She violated NFHS Rule 6-1-1-b, specifically
Quote:
|
While in this position, the pitcher shall take (or simulate taking) a signal from the catcher.

"this position" is specified in 6-1-1-a,
Quote:
|
Prior to pitching, the pitcher must take a position with shoulders in line with first and third base with the ball in the glove or pitching hand, and with the hands separated.

And, 6-1-1-c has the hands come together:
Quote:
|
After completing “b” above, the pitcher shall bring the hands together...
