Yup, right out of the NFHS mechanics book....

- "When a player attempts a three-point field goal, the official whose area the player is in will signal..."
- "If the three-point attempt is successful, the covering official will signal..."
- "When the Trail official signals a successful three-point attempt, the Lead official shall not mirror the signal"
- When the Lead official signals a successful three-point attempt, the Trail official shall mirror the signal."

The rationale for the mechanic is that the trail is usually more easily seen from the scoring table.
