Not exactly true in NCAA-M rules. The name has to be on the roster submitted. If the official scorer makes a mistake and doesn't enter the name in the scorebook, the name can be added without penalty. While many of us would apply the same principle to a HS game, the wording of the rule is slightly different, and a mistake by the score keeper is not expressed as an exception as it is in the NCAA-M rule. If you go strictly by the wording of the HS rule, you would have to penalize the team when the name is added even if it was on the roster they submitted.
