S Down Switch
This is a switch between the middle M2 and L2. M2, the Link and Wing run the outside holes. The attacking M2 engages dL to pull him/her across to the left. Then L2 cuts back inside late and runs the hole created by dM1. L2 fakes a pass, then cuts back again and performs a razor on the dL2. M2 must reposition (see Red arrows) to get behind the ball, ready to be the half.
