Did you look in the Case Book? Let's say 10.6.1C?

That is what I was looking for. That casebook reference escaped my notice because I limited my searching to include the word "dunk." I see how this reference applies to the OP.

10.6.1 SITUATION C: B1 is standing behind the plane of the backboard before
A1 jumps for a lay-up shot. The forward momentum causes airborne shooter A1
to charge into B1. RULING: B1 is entitled to the position obtained legally before
A1 left the floor. If the ball goes through the basket before or after the contact
occurs, the player-control foul cancels the goal. However, if B1 moves into the
path of A1 after A1 has left the floor, the foul is on B1. B1’s foul on the airborne
shooter is a foul during the act of shooting. If the shot is successful, one free
throw is awarded and if it is unsuccessful, two free throws result. (4-19-1, 6; 6-
7-4; 10 Penalty 2, 5a)

Not to thread hijack here but regarding this play, many officals would rather have a play on in this type of situation as it is an athletic play, and they claim that being under the basket (or behind in the case play) isn't really playing defense and thus shouldn't warrant a PC foul. My opinion is that until NFHS adopts the restricted circle or some variation of such, it should still be a PC.
