Reacting, I believe, to the . . . ahem . . . intimacy of the situation, I was pretty quick with the whistle, but called a held ball where, I do believe, kick is more better righter.
Held ball (4-25-1) stipulates using hands.
Kick (4-29), the most recent incarnation of kick, specifies intentionally striking the ball with any part of the leg or foot. Squeezing it with the thighs is TWO kicks at once, in opposite directions . . .

I trust that you were just being weird, but you just killed Mr. Grammar Guy. 
PS I'm calling this a kicking violation in NFHS too.
