Since he has used his dribble had he touched the "pass" it would have been an illegal dribble violation.

I'm impressed the kid knew the rule.

That explains my pang of doubt. Had he not used his dribble, would I have considered the pass, ball hitting the floor, and recovery, as a dribble?

Yes. The NFHS issued an interp on this exact play about five years ago. It is in the "past interpose archive" on this forum. Do a search.
