High School Defensive PI

[Mitsurugi san]

I know it’s not a spot foul (and I’m pretty sure it’s no longer an automatic first down in high school either), but is it 15 or 10 yards?

Thanks!

Think it's 10.

15 yards

Any officials for the tie break?

I believe NFHS rules say 15 yards with no automatic first down for defensive PI.

I’ve now officially seen it marched off 10 yards and 15 yards in the same game

Then we all got it right.

Hey, I said I think. I don't even know where the nearest Holiday Inn Express is out here.

High school defensive PI!? I know a guy who could say a thing or two about that.......

"high school rules the penalty is 15 yards from the previous spot with the down replayed for both offensive and defensive pass interference. Prior to 2013, the penalty for defensive pass interference also included an automatic first down while the penalty for offensive pass interference included a loss of down."
