I don’t know your definition of a medical professional, but HIPPA applies to everyone who has access to protected medical information as an employee (or even volunteer) of a medical entity or as an employee of a company who does work for the medical entity. There was a case about five years ago in Iowa where a person who received information and used it was sentenced to federal prison.

A result of title IX. Schools introduced scholarship limits in ‘73 (105) to free up money for women’s sports and set targets for women’s participation. Scholarships were limited to 95 in late ‘70s and 85 in the early ‘90s. These limitations resulted in schools not having the number of players to field jv or freshman teams. Before the limits schools could bring in 60 first years and keep the best 30. That would mean 90 players in the top three classes for a varsity game. The drop in players is what drove freshman being allowed to play - though the Marshall crash accelerated it. Now Ivy League and military schools with no athletic scholarships, as they don’t have to worry about scholarship numbers, would be the most likely to still play. I would guess that the teams faded at differing times in different regions as schools decided they could no longer field teams.
