For what reason did Arizona high school football player Cameron Torres receive a penalty after scoring a touchdown in the Sept. 21 game?

After the touchdown, he received the penalty due to unsportsmanlike behavior. Running to the end zone was considered taunting.

Torres was ejected from the game because it was his second unsportsmanlike penalty in that game alone. He was high stepping as he scored a touchdown which led to a being thrown because they believed Torres was 'taunting' his opponents.
