Last one for tonight (when you do four games in a row, lots of things come up).

There's no "hack" signal anymore, right (or maybe there never was). So I was told they want you to call a push or a hold or something similar to what could have happened.

So what do you call when A1 shoots and B1 tries to block it and hits the arm on the shot? Hold?

Had a defensive player tonight reach for the ball and smack the offensive player on the nose. I figured I had to call something on that, but couldn't figure out what. I said "push" just to have something to signal.

If a player goes up for a shot and the defensive player hits with the body, you can call a block or maybe a push, if there are hands involved, right?

And there's no symbol for reaching in, right? It's got to be a hold or a push.

And "over the back" is probably a push or a hold, right?

Thanks.

The *Hack/hit on the arm* is alive and well in the NCAA; t'is the same signal as *Illegal hands* in NFHS.

Over the back contact is a *Push*.

Actually grabbing, pulling or holding is a *Hold*.
