In high school there are no special rules concerning a forward fumble, so yes, the fumbling team can recover it for a touchdown. However, if the officials determine that a ball was deliberately fumbled forward to try and gain yardage, they can rule it as an incomplete pass.

When was the two point conversion first introduced in HS football?

The two-point conversion in high school football was first introduced in 1988. Before that, high school football only allowed for one point after a touchdown, which was typically attempted through a kick. The introduction of the two-point conversion added an additional option for teams to try to earn two points after scoring a touchdown, giving them an opportunity to score more points in a single play if they could successfully execute the conversion. This rule change mirrored the two-point conversion rule that had been in place in college and professional football for some time.
