Right, it's an INT foul because NFHS is trying to get these contacts out of the game.
The fact that this used to be legal is not a good reason to decline to enforce it. High hits used to be legal in football, and now they're a PF at every level and a DQ in NCAA.
Call it properly. Players will adjust. Reducing the number of players who get popped in the mouth will not ruin the game.
