Ball stuck in backside of the cross head.

[RILAX]

The following situation has started to happen more and more in the last few years:
During a face-off the face-off man that is able to clamp the ball is able to do so in a manner that causes the ball to become stuck in the back end of the stick. The NCAA has addressed this in saying that this is in effect whithholding the ball from play. (i.e. http://www.ecac.org/Officiating/Lacrosse/NCAA (this has the list of rule changes etc for the 2004 season, not many and mostly technical)).

I was wondering if anyone has heard anything specific from the NFHS about this. In absent of word from the NFHS how do you handle such a situation?

Thanks
