Player Ejection with 5 Active Players

Team has only five active/eligible players.

One player gets two technicals and is ejected from game.

Does game continue with 4 players or is it forfeited?

Thanks.

Drive on with four.

I believe the NFHS Rule Book states you can go down to ONE player if the officials still believe you have a chance to win!

Here you go:

Rule 3:ART. 1 . . . Each team consists of five players, one of whom is the captain.
NOTE: A team must begin the game with five players, but if it has no substitutes to
replace disqualified or injured players, it must continue with fewer than five. When there
is only one player participating for a team, the team shall forfeit the game, unless the
referee believes that team has an opportunity to win the game.
