Correct.

What makes this slightly confusing to some "veteran" officials is that this wasn't always the way it was done. When the alternating possession arrow was first used in NFHS games, the illegal catch by the jumper was considered a possession, an illegal possession, but, nevertheless, a possession. The offended team, the team that didn't catch the ball, got both the ball, and the arrow. That changed a few years later. No more double jeopardy.
