So, do you want to know what I think the correct answer is or would you like to know what the NFHS wants as an answer on the exam. Those, IMO, are two different things.
I think once he scores he is no longer a runner. He can be ejected for MC but he's not out because he's no longer a runner.

But a runner IS out if he initiates MC.
