The state has given the message that "2-person is OK" by leaving the first 2 rounds of the playoffs 2-person. If it's good enough for them in games where the loser is done for the season....
Yeah - but then they "encourage" you to attend 3 person camps and will even give you a "varsity" game credit if you do attend. And - they use only 3 person crews for sectional and state tournament games.

I think it's funny that you can attend a camp and pay a fee to go to that camp and officiate in a 3 person crew for a summer invitational tournament where teams are paying rather large fees to attend and play in as well. Some of those guys are making serious cash on both players and officials.
