My first varsity game occurred in about 1992 in my 4th or 5th year of officiating. Back then, it was normal to put 4-7 years in before you moved up. It was in PA, too.
I was crestfallen when I found out that there were 3 people accidentally assigned to the game and the senior guy, knowing I was assigned to my first game, decided on the fly to work 3-person. It was the old 3-person (we didn't rotate live ball and we had the C always opposite the table), but it was my first one.
I haven't had a JV official talk basketball with me in at least 5 years. Most dress at home, put their jackets on, and leave as soon as their games are over.
