I don't have a new book with me, but in the 2001-2003 NFHS Official's Manual, Diagram 22 explains this.

2-man: Ball out-of-bounds on the trail's sideline below the free throw line - Trail should move to the endline and become the new Lead while the Lead moves out onto the court and becomes the new Trail.


You need a 2003-2005 NFHS Officials Manual. Diagram 22 does not say that at all. Ball out-of-bounds on trail's sideline.. trail administers the throw-in no matter how deep it goes.

Z, you have it by the book. According to NFHS mechanics ONLY the LEAD can initiate a sideline switch. Of course, this will only be done if the throw-in spot is above the free-throw line extended. If the OOB is below the FT line extended on the Lead's sideline or anywhere on the Trail's sideline, both officials stay put.
