In our association, once the replacement official takes the floor, it's his game. No if's, and's or but's.
All varsity girls and boys games in NC are officiated by 3 officials. In fact, it's against state policy to work a varsity game with only two. We have done it on a rare few occasions when #3 didn't show. Our association also uses 3 man for JV boys games and for JV girls when part of a doubleheader with the boys. When we get to a point that we have enough officials, we will work all JV games with 3 man.
I know there are several other states in the Southeast that work 3 man, although I don't know if it's statewide. GA, TN, SC, FL, TX, and VA work 3 man in certain areas. Is there another state besides NC that requires all varsity games to have 3 officials?
