Wrong Starters in the book to start the game

We have been having many discussions lately on the beginning of the game and the book. The situation is this. To start the game each team has 5 starters on the floor and the ball is thrown for the tip. After a couple trips up and down the floor the horn sounds and the book shows us that the players that started the game are not the ones marked in the book. The NFHS rule book states that once the ball becomes live all players are now legal and there is no penalty. Others officials say that since the same 5 players that were in the book didn't start the game then there is a technical foul. I would love some help on this one. What is correct? Technical foul or play on?

Thanks
