No, another difference is that in NFHS, B3's initial strikeout would be negated, and there would only be one out on B2 being skipped. In ASA, B2 would be out for being skipped, and B3's strikeout would stand for a total of two outs.

As I read the NFHS Case Book, the play is that if B3 makes an out then that out stands. The book states that if B3 gets on base that B3 would be pulled off the base and put back into the box to bat again, if B3 makes an out then the out stands.

In the case book play, proper batter (B1) was skipped. Improper batter (B2) hits ground ball and is (a) safe at 1st or (b) out at first. Result: B1 is declared out, B2's at bat is nullified. In (a) B2 is removed from base. In both cases, B2 comes up to bat with one out. |

ASA, by contrast, states that the advance of the runners is nullified, but not that the at-bat is negated. The NFHS rule could be a bit more clear on this point, since the PENALTY says, Quote:
The case play makes this clear if you do the math. It ends by stating there is one out. If the proper batter is declared out, then the improper batter's out must have been negated, otherwise there would be 2 outs.
