If this were the only study, no. But the reports of adverse reactions in the booster trials were similar to those from the trials which were used for the EUAs so there isn't much reason to think there is any more risk from a third dose than there is from two.
In your opinion is 300 subjects observed over less than four weeks time a reliable medical study?
Prescribing information usually includes that sort of thing, for any drug or vaccination. "Watch out for this, it can happen once in a while.
but I haven't found anything pertaining to teenage males getting heart problems from just Covid 19.
Fatal Eosinophilic Myocarditis in a Healthy 17-Year-Old Male with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2c)
All children had acute myocardial dysfunction requiring cardiovascular support. This study confirmed similar observations from United Kingdom, France and Switzerland [2,3,4,5,6]. In the Grimaud et al. study, 19 out of 20 children had either positive SARS-CoV-2 detection by quantitative PCR or positive serology. The remaining child had a typical SARS-CoV-2 chest tomography scan. Note that all children had abdominal symptoms [1].

Acute myocarditis with intense systemic inflammation and atypical Kawasaki disease is an emerging severe pediatric disease following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Early recognition of this disease is needed and referral to an expert center is recommended. A delayed and inappropriate host immunological response is suspected. While underlying mechanisms remain unclear, further investigations are required to target an optimal treatment.

Do you happen to have any information about myocarditis rates with COVID infections, btw?
I don't. I have read articles that Covid 19 can cause heart problems, but I haven't found anything pertaining to teenage males getting heart problems from just Covid 19. They seem to acquire the problems after getting the "vaccine".
I would assume that since Covid 19 affects the elderly more detrimentally, they probably had some heart disease to begin with, and the virus exacerbated already present heart issues.
