Around here, as I understand it (though some may be league specific), we have Varsity and JV, and many schools have Freshman. Varsity is, well, varsity. Freshman, kinda self explanatory. JV is pretty competitive and schools handle differently. Some schools limit to sophomores and freshman (with, perhaps, an occasional special case for a junior) on the theory that if you haven't made varsity by junior year, it just ain't gonna happen. Others have a handful of juniors. I'm pretty sure the rule is that players can't go down levels in the same season -- you can come up from JV to V, but if you do, you're done playing with JV (and same for Frosh/JV). As best I can tell (I'm a Dad not a hoops ref), JV and frosh get a two-man team and varsity get a three-man crew.
