I suppose conferences / states canhave their own timing rules (see MN: 16 minute halves). Just recognize that what you've been told is contrary to the rules that most of us use.

From there, on the second jump ball, if the clock moved at all you could have reset it to where it was before you threw the second jump since you have definite knowledge that it shouldn't have run at all...

Oh my! Do you recall the other thread in which we were discussing working college ball and not knowing the rules?!! The same applies to NFHS games.
