That is an amusing little story and I'm sure that as a parent you enjoyed the whole scene. I wonder if you look at it a bit differently now that you are part of the officiating community.
Specifically, it is this part that I noticed:

In light of the rule JR quoted above, do you believe that this action was legal?
In her sitch, she said Team A was in their huddle. How do you know whether that huddle was held on or off the floor?
I don't. Maybe Juulie will tell us, if she remembers that fine of a detail. The only clue that I have from context is:
Based upon her stating that she was not yet officiating, this incident must have occurred about 7 years ago. That is right about the time that NFHS introduced the 20 second time-out. Perhaps you can specify the exact year that rule came in and if a team had to remain standing during the TO that first year. I can't recall.
