Shot from out of bounds on inbound pass

How can you interfere on a ball that has not met the legal definition of a shot? If that were true, if a defensive player touched it on it's downward arc, it would goaltending. I don't think so(but i'm not an expert either).

Apparently it must be true. It's in the rules book.

See NFHS case book play 9.11.2SitC. It's the exact play. The NCAA rule is the same.
