Why do you have a different ruling between HS and and NCAA?

Are the NFHS and NCAA rules on act of shooting not the same?

NCAA:
Quote:
Art. 1. Continuous motion applies to a try for field goal or free throw, but shall have no significance unless there is a foul by the defense during the interval that begins when the normal throwing movement starts a try or with the touching on a tap and ends when the ball is clearly in flight.

Art. 10. The try starts when the player begins the motion that normally precedes the release of the ball on a try.
NFHS:

ART. 1. Continuous motion applies to a try or tap for field goals and free throws, but it has no significance unless there is a foul by any defensive player during the interval which begins when the habitual throwing movement starts a try or with the touching on a tap and ends when the ball is clearly in flight.

ART. 3 . . . The try starts when the player begins the motion which habitually precedes the release of the ball.
Aside from minor grammatical and word form differences, these read identical.
