Why was this jump ball re-jumped?
The toss was straight. The toss was high enough (higher than both players could jump). The tossing officials didn't get in anybody's way. The toss wasn't bad such that it caused either jumper to violate. Players were facing the correct direction.
Both jumpers mistimed the jump ball, not due to a bad toss by the tossing official, but because the players screwed up. Even so everything subsequently turned out to be legal.

Regarding high school games, no more jump balls, that why God inspired somebody to invent the alternating possession arrow. No more peach baskets. No more chicken wire around the perimeter of the court. No more two hand set shots. No more jump balls.
Seriously, why was this jump ball re-jumped?
