That's correct. 9-1-2 (FED)
Interestingly, in the NCAA rulebook, I can find no rule that requires an opponent of the free thrower to occupy the first lane space. 9-1-4 (just as interestingly, there is no 9-1-3 in the NCAA rulebook
) states that no teammate of the free thrower can have that spot, but the only mention of requiring an opponent to occupy the spot is in an AR.
My guess is that the requirement for the opponent of the free thrower is in 9-1-3, but it was accidentally left out of the final edition of the rulebook. I'm gonna go check the rules online right now.
