Like I said before, do what is accepted in your area since this isn't addressed in NFHS publications. However, to say that it may cause confusion is just false. It's done in NCAA and it's done around here for NFHS and I've never seen it cause confusion, not even once. The only confusion I've ever seen is when the whistle doesn't blow and the scorekeeper forgot to turn the "automatic horn" switch on.
