Non-Contrasting Libero Uniform

[MD Longhorn]

So ... you are the NCAA Rules Committee Interpretor now?

That is not the purpose of the contrasting jersey. You're on this board, so I'm going to assume you referee... you KNOW who the libero is, and picking them out when they set near the 10 foot line is easy. Further ... this call happens incredibly rarely, as any libero anywhere near the line bump-sets the ball. No one is trying to get away with this call... the advantage gained is minimal in contrast to the easy in making the call and the penalty for getting caught. (I ask you in all seriousness when the last time you called this was... for me it was, I believe, 4 seasons ago in week one after a normal libero was replaced due to injury and the other girl simply didn't know the rule... I doubt this is called an average of once a year at the college level in all college games combined)

Teams (esp Div 1) announce in advance what uniforms are being worn. The NCAA would have told them in advance if what they were wearing was not in compliance. The NCAA ... not your dictionary ... determines the definition of this rulebook term with respect to the game they oversee.
