HS Baseball Team Forfeits Championship Game to Avoid Playing Against a Girl

This is weird.

quote:

Officials at Our Lady of Sorrows declined comment. In a written statement Thursday, the school said the decision to forfeit was consistent with a policy prohibiting co-ed sports.

The statement also said the school teaches boys respect by not placing girls in athletic competition, where "proper boundaries can only be respected with difficulty."

Why doesn't the chick play softball?

Also, do they allow boys to play softball?

From the article...

quote:

Lisa Maatz, director of public policy at the American Association of University Women, said the situation is a clear example of why Title IX law, which enforces gender equality in education programs including sports, is needed.


Really?

Is she for the First Amendment or not? Because this traditionalist Catholic sect is just following its beliefs.

BTW, they aren't recognized by the Vatican as a Catholic organization.

That is their decision. This has nothing to do with Title IX, or "cooties" as referenced in the article.

I think its stupid as well, but support their decision.

It was the school's decision, not the players. It's not like the coach said "all right show of hands...."

weak on her coaches part to bend like that the first two times for a school and screw over his own player.

The reverse scenario happened about 12 years ago. School didn't have enough guys for a bb team but they did have a sb team. So, the 5 boys' parents sued under title IX to play softball. They won.

They went to the state semi-finals with a mixed team against all girl teams. The boys dominated. In the semi final game a boy was on 3B. He tagged up on a Sac fly. The girl catcher blocked the plate. He knocked her into the backstop. Out cold. Carted off the field.

The girl team they were to meet in the finals forfeited for safety reasons.

It's not wrestling.

Unless by boundaries they mean Kitchen.

Also she must be pretty good to be starting on a team that made the State Championship, and she's only 15
