O.t

I was watching a varsity game tonight and it went to O.T. They began the OT with a jump. This seemed strange to me so I went to the rule book. It does not say anything that I can find.
From the following I am led to assume that it should be alternating possesion am I correct.
5-7-3 The length of each extra period shall be four minutes (or half the time of a regulation quarter for non-varsity contests). As many such periods as are necessary to break the tie shall be played. Extra periods are an extension of the fourth quarter.
thanks
