[NFHS] Post-season draws?

[Stat-Man]

Does NFHS have a rule similar to NCAA 7.1.2 that states that a post-season game (other than a championship) that ends in a shootout (penalty kicks) is recorded as a draw?

I happened to come acorss this rule last week preparing for a soccer tournament and it made me wonder if the NFHS has a similar provision in its rules.

At the HS level it is up to each individual state association to set the regulations for its post-season tournaments. However, there is a suggestion in the back of the book, which can be adopted and used as is, or modified and used, or ignored entirely.

A Sample Tournament Progression

A. Tie Game Procedure
...
3. g. Add one goal to the winning team score and credit the team with a victory. An Asterisk (*) may be placed by the team advancing to indicate the advancement was the result of a tie breaker system.

Thanks, Nevada.

I believe my state association just has a team do something like "Sample High 3, City Central 2 [SO]", so I guess I'm good.
