And yet another illegal pitch thread

Sorry that the 'event' in question is a few days in the past, but I've been off line.

In the college softball world series, did anyone judge the MI pitcher as illegal? I'm specifically referencing her wrist being farther from the waist than the elbow? I was flipping channels, saw it immediately and took the opportunity to show my wife what I have to do on the field. (I froze the DVR: just before the point of release, the elbow was crooked outwards close to 45º, then at the point of release her arm seemed to be crooked outwards about 25º-30º at the elbow and after the pitch her follow through carried her arm in front of her body.)

I watched for about 2 innings and she seemed to do it on every pitch. I didn't see it called and I can only assume it was allowed all year by the NCAA officials.
