In Massachusetts I know of only one league, which consists of all boys schools, using three. Everything else is two during the regular season. The state tourney is three for all games.

In Western PA it is 3 person for league play and tournament play for boys and girls varsity. Most exhibition games are 3 person crews with only a couple of schools opting for a 2 person crew. Sub varsity is usually 2 person but a couple of the schools are going to 3 person at the junior varsity level for rivalry games.

The state of things in Missouri are evolving in similar fashion to our friends from Illinois.

Officially it is up to the conference/individual school for regular season play.

A few years ago, Missouri went to 3-man crews in our larger classes (4,5), and as a result most of the large conferences (at least in the St Louis area) have followed suite, some faster than others.

This year the state is introducing 3-man crews in the smaller classes (1,2,3) during the playoffs. I would assume that the smaller conferences would follow suite over time, albeit probably slower than the larger ones.

Heck some of the smaller schools that I know of in the NE corner would hire 1-man crews if they could get a way with it. :eek:

Connecticut is generally 2-person for the regular season (with occasional use of 3-person crews). At some point in the state tournament, 3-person crews are used.

Missouri, it depends on your AD. Class 3 or higher uses 3 for their varsity. If you have a tournament in the lower levels, the championship game is usually a 3 man. Overall, it depends on your AD because I've done a 3 man for a junior high game once when it wasn't a tournament, and a 2 man for a varsity!

In Idaho, it's all 2-man.
