Just noticed rule 5. 
Anyone else catch it? 

 
You really expect an organization as large as NFHS to catch such a big mistake? Hell, they kept the jewery rule in for ages and kept forgetting to take it out.

Sorry you are being subjected to such sarcasm without an answer to your post. To answer your post, no, I didn't catch it.

That misprint is not in the digital version. 

Nor is it in the large print or braille versions.

Can digital versions have misprints?

@Velho, that reminds me of a frustrating thing I had happen this spring, relevant to Rulebooks… 

We often correct each other here, it’s not a Dropped 3rd Strike (D3K), it’s an Uncaught 3rd Strike (U3K). 

Well, this year, I had to take the NCAA, NAIA, and the NJCAA tests, so to say that I was feeling a bit harried is an understatement. Because I knew of how exact the NCAA can be in their vernacular, I attempted to look up the citation of a few rules so as to get them exactly right, word for word. 

So, we search 🔍 “uncaught”… 0 results. Hmm 🧐… check spelling of “uncaught”. Nope, correct… 0 results. What gives? 

It turns out the NCAA Rules Committee does not believe that the word “uncaught” exists. They use “not caught”. :Facepalm:
