It was definitely changed, but it was put in a rather obscure place, I think maybe the officials manual.

This was just clarifying the change. Nothing more to see here...

I believe the NFHS made this a mechanics change last year, and put it in the officials manual. But the rule book still required the referee to toss. I remember noticing the contradiction and thinking they'd pooched that one. This change fixes that.
