For 2 man, there is ONE case in which a timeout causes a switch....

Ball near leads sideline above FT line but still in front court. Whoever calls the timeout reports it but the lead will end up at the throwin spot, the trail be at the division line. At the end of the timeout, the trail will go to the endline and become the lead while the old lead is now trail....this is the only non-foul switch possible in NFHS 2-man mechanics.

Just to reprhrase what others have said for the NFHS 2-man timeout mechanics (in case it is still unclear)...
  1. When the timeout is called, determine the location of the throwin.
  2. Whichever official is responsible for a throwin at that spot (as if a defensive violation had occurred at that spot) shall be the one to go to the throwin spot.
  3. The other official goes to the division line.
  4. At the end of the timeout, the official at the division line boxes in (whether that makes them trial or lead)
Between 1 & 2, whoever called the timeout reports the time out.
