No one really knows. Even the partners still are unsure now. The announcer announced it was for over celebration, so perhaps unsporting behavior. Dunno, I was not there, and the scoop from partners were that umpires did not get together for the call, and no post-game, they each went straight to their cars afterwards. It was never discussed or brought up amongst them ever again AFAIK or was told.

Usually when this idiotic call is improperly made, it is because the umpire doesn't understand that in almost every code: 1) the ball must be live; and 2) contact between a player and coach does not, in and of itself, equal assistance.

Moreover, EVEN in NCAA, it isn't an out the first time anyway. It is a warning. So even if the NCAA umpire applied an NCAA rule in a high school game, he didn't even do that correctly.

I hope his partner stepped in to get the rule right.
