Why? The kid participated. By rule, he must be in the book. The scorer is required to track all players and substitutes who enter.

Just to add to that, many states have a limit of quarters played/day. In Ohio it is 5. So if that player played 3 qtrs. in the JV game, the one minute he played in the 2nd quarter of the varsity game has to be accounted for as his/her 4th qtr. of the day. The only way to do that would be to add the name to the book.

But those types of eligibility issues are never the purview of NFHS or included in the playing rules.

Didn't say they were. The point is, if you work in a state that has limitations on quarters played, most likely that state would expect the official and the scorekeeper (upon discovery of the issue) to account for that quarter played by having the player added to the book which IS in the playing rules of the NFHS.
