  • NFHS Rules Differences
    NFHS Rules Differences The purpose of these presentations is to highlight the differences between NFHS and NCAA rules. It is not intended to be a comprehensive review of all the rules. Many of the NFHS rules definitions in Rule 2 are similar to the relevant rules in the NCAA code. These include: blocking definitions, scrimmage formation and free kick formation. The net effect is that for these definitions, they are administered and/or officiated the same in both codes unless noted below. Also, there are terms that are different but are the same description. These include: restraining line in NFHS is akin to the limit line in NCAA; face tackling/butt blocking are terms akin to using the crown of helmet/facemask to tackle/block, first touching versus illegal touching, boundary lines versus sidelines, free kick lines versus restraining lines. There are others that are defined in only one of the codes, but have no bearing: offensive blocker, captain, non-player, rule, belongs to, deliberate dead ball advance, between downs, forward, beyond, blocking a scrimmage kick, field goal attempt. We are not going to get hung up on the terminology differences and will use the terms interchangeably. Each rule is broken down into three segments: 1) Low importance – defined as items we don’t need to focus on, and will administer as before, 2) Minor importance – items you need to be aware of, but they involve situations that are rare or are not germane to the playing of the game, 3) Major importance – these are the items we need to focus on, especially if they relate to safety.

  • Chronicle 1992 Game 1
    La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 1992 Game 1, September 11, 1992: La Salle 14 – Plymouth-Whitemarsh 13 by Beth Onufrak, Inquirer Explorers Come Back To Edge Past The Colonials Dazed from a hit in the first half, La Salle senior quarterback Sean McDermott returned to the lineup in the third quarter Friday, only to have his jersey ripped off his back. By the fourth quarter, McDermott had finally been rewarded for his trials, as he led the Explorers to a 14- 13 comeback victory over Plymouth-Whitemarsh at the Colonials' field. "I just landed on my head and got knocked out," McDermott said of his injury in the first half. "I felt good at halftime. The trainer said it was up to me. I know it's the beginning of the season, but I felt like I could come back. I wanted to prove that I was a leader, so I came back, and it turned out good." The Colonials were leading 13-0 - they scored all their points in the first half - when the Explorers found their offense with a little help from their special teams. McDermott led the offense onto the field for the first possession of the fourth quarter after the special teams had forced one of a series of bad punts. That was on the Colonials' 32. Seven plays later, on fourth and goal, McDermott threw over the top to score the Explorers' first touchdown. Joel Klock added the extra point to close the score to 13-7, with 8 minutes, 53 seconds to play.
