I agree. I don't see the problem. I once had the pleasure of calling in the final score to the local radio station after a "stall ball" game and the lady on the phone even asked, "You sure this isn't a halftime score?" (The score was something like 24-18 for varsity boys.)

The other team couldn't/wouldn't come out and guard the guys holding the ball by the division line. Their fans were booing and saying bad words, but that's all the players had to do. Step up and play defense.

I just don't see the need for a shot clock in high school as long as both teams are allowed to play defense.
