Row 3 of A181196.
Equivalently, the number of "truncated shifted standard Young tableaux" of shape <n, n, n>; in other words, if we shift the middle row to the right by one unit and the bottom row to the right by two units, we require that the resulting diagram be increasing as we read down or to the right.
To count these tableaux, observe that if we put the entry 2n + 2 + k in the last position of the second row, the bottom row must end with the entries 2n + 3 + k, ..., 3n. The remaining figure can be filled in arbitrarily; it is a shifted Young diagram of shape <n, n - 1, k>. Now apply the hook-length formula for shifted Young tableaux. (This argument is due to Greta Panova.)
a(n) is also the number of maximum packings of pattern

a(n) is also the number of standard Young tableaux of shape (n,n,n) (French notation) such that for any element T(i,j) in the tableau T, its upper element T(i+1,j) is larger than its right element T(i,j+1). - Ran Pan, Apr 13 2015

FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-2} ((2n+k-1)!*(n-k)*(n-k-1)) / (n!*(n-1)!*k!*(2n-1) * (n+k)*(n+k-1)) for n>=2, a(1) = 1.
Recurrence: (2*n-1)*(7*n-13)*n^2*a(n) = 2*(182*n^4 - 1185*n^3 + 2722*n^2 - 2625*n + 900)*a(n-1) + 3*(2*n-5)*(3*n-5)*(3*n-4)*(7*n-6)*a(n-2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 21 2013
a(n) ~ 3^(3*n+1/2)/(64*Pi*n^4). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 21 2013
