Why did NFHS, ever think that U1 should be pre-pitch positioned in C, I'll never know.

there are three "positioning rules" that can be used, and each is "advantageous" depending on the particular play / umpiring ability. Whch is used depends (imo) on what happened "last" to whoever is in charge:
1) Use C whenever there's a runner at second or third.
2) Use C whenever a (single) steal of third is possible.
3) Use B whenever a (single) steal of second is possible.
I started my training with #1. My state uses #2 for HS. I prefer #3.
