We have discussed this topic several times in our Association meetings and we have all agreed to give the inbounding time the right to run the baseline when team b deflects the ball oob on the endline.
The NFHS rulebook is very plain in identifying a ball deflected oob as a violation. If the ball went oob on the sideline it would be a designated spot throw-in. If the ball goes oob on the endline, team A still gets the baseline. It may not seem fair, but that is the rule.

No, it isn't the rule. Your association is misinterpreting the rule.
The throw-in ends when a player touches the ball inbounds.
Simply deflecting the pass is not a violation.
The throw-in ended on the deflection .
The violation doesn't occur until the ball goes OOB.
Therefore, we have a spot throw-in.
If the ball is kicked or B1 is touching OOB, then the violation occurs, simultaneous with the touch. That's the difference.
