college goaltending question

[Raymond]

A1 shoots a layup, B2 contacts the ball after it has hit the glass but before it is above the rim, is this a goaltend in college ball?

Ball never made it above the rim, cannot be goaltending in this case. That applies in high school also.

However, in the NBA I think there is a rule about hitting the ball after it hits the backboard.

I knew that in the fed rules, the glass didn't play a part in the ruling, just wasn't sure about the NCAA thanks guys...
