what I dont understand is why all of th talk ' he lead with his knee's".. the rule says
Rule(s):
Rule 2, Section 22: Hurdling
Hurdling is an attempt by a player to
jump (hurdle) with one or both feet or knees foremost over an opponent who is contacting the ground with no part of his body except one or both feet.
maybe I am misreading this. To me it almost seems like a hurdling call.. but this is a HTBT play.
