I say, "standing on the base is the safe place to be; as long as she does nothing intentional while on the bag, she won't be called for INT"

PU comes up to me later to inform me that's not correct, she absolutely has to vacate the area so a fielder can field the ball. "If she wants to drop to the ground & keep a finger on the bag, that's fine, but she can't get in the way."

First time working with my partner, no sense in arguing (I didn't know the chapter & verse to quote him) so I let the conversation end there.

I'm new to NCAA. Does 12.6.2 apply here?

Your partner is incorrect. I suggest you don't let it go. Forward the rule RKB noted to your partner and explain this was the basis for your ruling. You will be doing everyone, including your former partner a favor.
