There were many courts played on that were smaller then the recommended 84' I remember reading about the guy who scored 132 in a high school game and they mentioned that the court that they played on was 50'x30', so short that there was no back court.
I would guess that many schools didn't have the gym or stage (yes some schools played basketball on their stage) that was the recommended size but according to the NFHS guidelines the games were to be played with hopes that in the future the schools would get a court of the proper size.
