Are "a manager or statistician, etc." team personnel?

The case play Bob previously listed, prior to my reply, specifically addresses your question.

NFHS 4-34: Bench personnel are all individuals who are part of or affiliated with a team, including, but not limited to: substitutes, coaches, manager(s) and statistician(s).

NFHS 10-4: The head coach is responsible for his/her own conduct and behavior, as well as substitutes, disqualified team members and all other bench personnel. Bench
personnel, including the head coach, shall not: Stand at the team bench while the clock is running or is stopped, and must remain seated, except: c. During a charged time-out, as in 5-11, or the intermission between quarters and extra periods.

It appears that we don't allow coaches, both head coaches, and assistant coaches, to approach the table to inquire about team fouls, or personal fouls. The case play states that a manager or a statistician may approach, but the rule states that they must remain seated except during a timeout, or intermission.

While the game is in progress, while the clock is running, who may approach the table to inquire about team fouls, or personal fouls?

Nobody? I think that's the answer?
