Throat protector
Rulebook says: A throat protector that is part of or attahed to the mask shall extend far enoughto adequately protect the throat.

How are we supposed to judge that?

I dont know exactly, but if it has the extended throat protector it is allowed. I think everything pretty much has that now and as long as it has the NOCSAE {sic} and extended protection, its good to go.

I could stand to be corrected though.

Adequately protect means a pitch can't fit past the protector and injure the throat.
Judging it is another issue.

The NFHS rule book has that sentence in Rule 1-7-1.
