There was a time before a 2011-ish NFHS rule change in which team control did not include the throw-in. Thus the "offense" could commit a foul during a throw-in which resulted in bonus free throws for the other team. This is no longer the case.
The concept of team control during a throw-in had already been an NCAA rule for quite some time. That it was not an NFHS rule was an oddity, and thankfully it was changed.
For any history before 1997 when I started, you'll have to consult someone older and wiser.
