I don't agree but I'm not going to belabor the point any more. We simply see this play differently.

Bring versatility in to the discussion here. Can a player be in a legal position with their feet not below their torso?
The fact that the contact is to her torso makes this close enough for me on her verticality. If she had contacted an outstretched leg first then I think this could be a consideration.

Put me in the PC group, but I don't think you would catch a lot of flak for a block here either.

Definitely not a travel.
