This is my impression as well. I think their complaints gain some force (but only some) from the inconsistency with which officials call handchecks.
I would like to see our association work on consistency for next season, and to communicate to area coaches what's a handcheck and what isn't.
The NCAAW criteria are admirably clear and consistent with the NFHS rule. They're worth adopting explicitly IMO.
