Correct. The defender is allowed to jump straight up, and if the shooter causes the contact, any call should be PC (not charge).

It was hard to sit there with a straight face after that explanation...since the official is a friend of mine, I called him after the game and we talked about it. He still doesn't get it. Oh well...
