In Wisconsin, the state association assigns the state games to a pair, usually ones who have worked together throughout the year, or at least thru the regional and sectional levels of the tourney. Each 2-man crew does only one state game in a year (quarter, semi, or finals). At the beginning of the season, we list officials that we would like to be paired with in the tourney. They try to accomodate that, but the higher level games go to those who partner all year.
