I personally wouldn't, I would try to learn the event and all of the systems together, but if need be I'd who you think will do more work and let them do two systems, because if you're going to learn a system its better to master it, and give the other one system. You could also figure out which system you think is the hardest and give that one to one person and the other two to the other person.

I'm not necessarily sure what the "best" is, but I've been using openstax which is free and online.

I recommend splitting the systems in the beginning of the season. For instance, I focused on the cardiovascular system last year while my partner focused on excretory, and we both knew lymphatic. Towards the end of the season, we both knew the basics of all the systems, but one person was stronger in a system.

Knowing all the systems helps for stations, especially if the stations focused on one system only. In this scenario, I would have answered the basic questions on excretory while my partner focused on more detailed questions. However, specializing in a system helps a lot in exams. You can simply split the exam into your systems, which will help you finish in a shorter amount of time instead of answering questions together.

I recommend talking to your partner and figuring out your strengths and weaknesses, then accomodate for each other.

When I competed, I used textbooks then quizzed my knowledge by taking exams. YouTube videos are also a good source for in-depth explanations and connecting topics together. Discover what works best for you though!

Did anyone else have trouble finding the Vastus Intermedium? However, I did find Vastus Intermedius. Is this a typo or am I not looking in the right areas?

You're right. Thanks for catching that; a rules clarification should be posted shortly.

A rules clarification has been posted:

11/15/19 (Divisions B and C) should read, changes in bold: On the Official Event Muscle List, vastus intermedius should replace vastus intermedium.
