:confused:I saw something new in Friday's game between SW and Danville. On the first PAT that was no good there was a penalty on SW for Holding. This was a kick that failed miserably but with the penalty DHS was allowed to re-kick and made it. I have never seen this called on a kicking PAT and was just curious how this might occur. It was called twice in the game, so obviously SW was doing something wrong, I just would like to know what?:confused:

I would guess that a defensive player grabbed an offensive lineman and pulled him so that another defensive player could shoot the gap in an effort to block the kick.

 

Again, just a guess, I was not there.

I'm not an official but that is usually the case when this call is made.

Probably what happend, I have never seen it called.

A follow up question would be, is that something that could be called during a regular play?

Yes is can be called on any normal play. Most of the time you see it on WR (DB holding a rec of some type) and the such. You will see it where DL grab OL to create gaps. Male in 93 would hold the Boone County OL once they went to tight splits so their LBers could flow to the backs. Another one you do not see to much is defensive blocking below the waist. Defenders are not allowed to "cut" offensive players except in certain set ups.

Yes, it is illegal use of the hands by the defense.

I appreciate the information. Thanks!
