Even if it was an NCAA game and he had to go two-person (i.e., the 3rd didn't show or got hurt) he'd have to signal the attempt and the make. The question to ask him in your game would have been, "if you don't signal as the L on a three in your PCA, who is supposed to?"

Someone will have to answer what the mechanic is for NCAAM but in NCAAW if there's a three in your PCA you signal the attempt but not the make, unless it's a quick transistion. The T can mirror the attempt and both the T and L signal the make.

Your partner sounds as though he's a college official who forgot what level he was working that night.

So I guess, in some situations and at some levels, the Lead does mirror signals.
As I sit here looking at my NCAAW CCA Manual I'm not seeing anything about officials mirroring F1 signals.
