In any event, I checked with a high-ranking interpreter that assists with RefSchool, and according to him, the answer is indeed YES. The software is a fantastic tool, but like us, it has a few glitches.

I think that you are a fantastic tool also.
And so is your "high-ranking interpreter that assists with RefSchool", if that was supposed to impress me.
Read NFHS rule 3-3-7. That tells you that blood on a uniform is treated the exact same way as an open wound or bleeding. It also tells you that a team can request and be granted a timeout to keep the player with blood on their uniform in the game. And tell your "high ranking interpreter that assists with RefSchool" when you see him that rules 3-3-6 and 3-3-7 have identical language when it comes to those TO requests and both share the same language in the "NOTES: (ARTS:6,7)" under those rules. Maybe you can find somebody to explain those NOTES, especially Note #2, to both of you. That note applies to blood on a freaking uniform.
Lah me.....
