[Al Skierkiewicz]

The rule of thumb that has been used for years has been, "If you take away the part that is holding it up would it still be in scoring position?" Added to that is the pictured scored tetra and player station contact where if the player station were removed, the tetra would be touching the ground outside the goal. These two are contradictory. Since the obvious picture in the rules state the tetra is in scoring position, then a tetra supported by the field boundary must also be in scoring position. I say count it, err on the side of the teams when in doubt.
