NF is different

NCAA is different than NFHS. In high school, the entire block (neutral zone mark) is off limits during a free throw. In NCAA, the block is part of first lane space.

NF references are as follows

5-2
The lane-space marks (2 inches by 8 inches) and neutral-zone marks (12 inches by 8 inches) identify areas which extend 36 inches from the outer edge of the lane lines toward the sidelines. There are four marked lane spaces on each lane boundary line.

9-1-9
A player occupying a marked lane space may not have either foot beyond the vertical plane of the outside edge of any lane boundary, or beyond the vertical plane of any edge of the space (2 inches by 36 inches) designated by a lane-space mark or beyond the vertical plane of any edge of the space (12 inches by 36 inches) designated by a neutral zone.

Anybody have NCAA rules reference?
