The Women's mechanic is not a mirror of the chop by the Trail, the Trail is the only official that chops, if the ball is in the halfcourt set. And at the NCAA level, at least the D1 level, they use the Precision Time System. So the Lead does not need to chop. They are starting the clock on their hip. Actually, the same thing the NBA does.

The lead chops with the counting hand. Two finger count above the head with a chop down on the touch on court. Unless they changed it since I went to camp last summer.
