Either way, tough call.

That being said, I will give the HL his due as he gave the call immediately.
Um, wait a minute, in my book the HL did a horrible job as he left the LOS prior to the ball crossing the LOS.
The Side Judge actually made the immediate (and correct) touchdown call on the simultanious catch!
This play was correctly ruled a touchdown and was a textbook example of NFHS Rules 2-4-3 and 7-5-4.

I think perhaps you should take another look at both the play and the NFHS Rules Book!
