Intentional Foul Against Free Throw Shooter ...

Camron Rust is correct.

Previous to the 2015-16 season, as the NFHS was changing (again) from "hit" to "release" on free throws, International IAABO interpreter, Peter Webb, may have jumped the gun and come out with comments regarding the free throw shooter being a "sitting duck" and that if the shooter was fouled, it should be an intentional foul. I believe that his comments appeared in IAABO's Sportorials magazine. Referee magazine may have played a minor role in this confusion. I remember that I was embarrassed to be an IAABO member because it's IAABO's role to train officials, it's not the role of IAABO to make rule changes, or to interpret rules.
