PIAA ref has it right. According to the 2007-2009 Officials Manual 2.3.4B.5 "When the trail official signals a successful three-point attempt, the lead official SHALL NOT mirror the signal.
2.3.4B.6 says "When the lead offical signals a successful 3-point attempt the trail official SHALL mirror the signal.
I was told at state-wide association camp that the trail should mirror the 3-point attempt signal of the lead and at that point the lead should drop his/her attempt signal and the trail only will signal successful three-point attempt. The theory being that the lead will follow the action under the basket and the trail, with a wider viewing area, will be responsible for the basket.
