I could be wrong. I've never had that opportunity.
I know we have to register in basketball, but they don't do it for baseball as far as I know. In the playoffs around here, the host school hires two of the umpires and the visiting team is allowed to choose one if they want.

For the state championships, MSHSAA does in fact choose the umpires with recommendations from assignors in different areas. Now what those recommendation are based on is anyone's guess.
