Sorry man, but face guarding is not legal in HS ball.

Rule 7-5 Art. 10 Part B: It is forward-pass interference if any player hinders an opponents vision without making an attempt to catch, intercept or bat the ball, even though no contact was made.


Flagged it against Haysi in the Sullivan North game and their Haysi's D coordinator didn't like it. North turned around and done the same thing a couple of drives later. He was fine then and we talked at halftime. They didn't think it was a rule, and I guess that just shows why coaches and officials need more rule book time. He said they do it all the time and it is never called, but he said if thats the rule and we call it the same both ways, then he's fine with it.
