Key word of a horse collar tackle is “tackle” – must use the collar to pull the player to the ground to be illegal. →All horse-collar fouls are to be treated as live-ball fouls.

  13. Points Of Emphasis Sportsmanship The NFHS has concern over the sportsmanship of running clock games and contests which are blow outs. Contact designed to be “punishing” should be penalized. Taunting and acts of a blatant unsportsmanlike nature should be swiftly addressed. - More vocal officiating - More vigilante dead ball officiating - Preventive officiating
