Fortunately, the schools in NC have no choice. The NCHSAA mandates 3 man crews for all varsity games.
But if they changed back to 2 man tomorrow, my game tomorrow night would be my last. It's an outdated, ineffective way of officiating HS basketball.

Financial realities in our school districts have brought this issue up in our most recent negotiating cycle. Fortunately, coaches in our district seem to wield enough clout to keep the bean-counters at bay. They actually seem to grasp the value of the third set of eyes.
I have done two and three man this year...Two man for sub varsity and three for varsity. I have to say I would have to seriously reconsider whether I would continue if forced to revert to two-man for varsity contests. I view it as a giant step backward in terms of overall quality and professionalism, and not something I would want to be involved in. I wish you luck with your decision, Rich. I understand where you're coming from.

I might not quit if this happen in my area, but I would certainly stop working certain leagues or number of games.
Then again our playoffs are all 3 Person and I doubt they would go backwards. Also helps integrate newer officials into the system. Time will tell, but I would not want to go backwards that is for sure. Peace
