I have officiated far too many summer league and team camp games over the years which are played using running clocks.

The clock should have been started should have been started per NFHS rules.

I tend to agree with you generally Mark but it might also have been possible that a mercy rule was in effect or that the schedule was so backed up it was decided to do it this way. Then the ruling would have been "correct".
