If (and it's a big "if") the game officials came across as presented in the news reports, they have a problem and should be repremanded. However, considering the history of accuracy by local newsreports on HS football games (non varsity no less) I tend to lean a lot towards miscommunication about procedures.
Especially on the sub-varsity level, over the years I've experienced multiple instances where leagues have "forgotten" to alert their officials assigning sources about modifications they have decided to adapt.
If these game officials behaved badly, that's on them and their assigning organization will likely deal with it but there is better than a good chance the officials were not aware that overtime was sanctioned at that particular level.
