Is there a penalty, if so, for what? Where is the enforcement spot?

We flagged for "face-masking" and marked of 15 from the spot of the foul (ie 37) to make it 1st and 10 on the 22.

This is a high school game.

The foul should've been from the end of the run. 15 yard penalty to the 20. You didn't mention down and distance on the original play. It's only a first down if the yardage makes it a first down.
