I wouldn't have called that RTP in a high school game.

Those holds were all there and were all relevant. Two offensive lines that were (in places) completely overmatched.
When I first saw the RTP I thought it was a poor call as well. On the second replay what I noticed was a defender who wasn't full speed and could have easily held up. Instead, he continued his movement and extended his arms to hit Ben after the ball was thrown. I assumed that's why McAuley threw the flag. At worst this was a close call that maybe should have gone the other way. To call it an absolutely horrible call shows someone's ignorance.
