Let's be honest, there are some varsity girls games out here that really only need two, but they get three. The JV boys at these schools could not be reasonably worked with 2, however. Those schools get 3 for JV/V B and G.
I don't think there is a simple answer to this. For example, if you have different budgets and different decision-makers deciding how to spend those budgets, it would be harder to criticize different choices as to the best place to spend the money. If it is the same decision-maker or same budget, a lot easier to infer gender bias and inequality as part of the decision.
