In Appendix V of the NCAA rulebook, it states that, relative to an airborne shooter, the NFHS states "in air after release of try or tap." The NCAA states "Men-No rule."
On page BR-75 it says:
Quote:
Section 1. Airborne Shooter
Art. 1. An airborne shooter is in the act of shooting.
A.R. 67. A1 is in the air on a jump shot in the lane. A1 releases the ball on a try and is fouled by B1, who has jumped in an unsuccessful attempt to block the shot. A1’s try is: (a) successful; or (b) unsuccessful. RULING: A1 shall be an airborne shooter when the ball is released until he or she returns with one foot touching the floor. An airborne shooter shall be in the act of shooting. B1 has fouled A1 in the act of shooting. A1 shall be awarded one free throw in (a), and two in (b).
Art. 2. An airborne shooter is a player who has released the ball on a try for
goal until one foot has returned to the floor.

I'm having trouble understanding what the difference in NFHS and NCAA calls would be.
