I understand that is the stance NCAA is taking that physical contact is required in order to be interference, and if that is the how they want it called, that is fine. However, I do not see where in the rules that is supported.

Yes, I was quoting the general definition of interference in 1.72, but the same wording is used in 12.19. As for 12.19.1.4 it says physical contact "shall" be considered interference, not that it is required. Again, I fully understand NCAA umpires are being instructed to require the physical contact for it to be called. But, if that is the case, then the rule book needs to be reworded to indicate so.

I work NCAA and had contact on a play last week and the offensive coach still didn't like the call. He said he didn't think the SS would get to the ball. I was certain she would have fielded it. My judgment. We're done.
