[The Pack Knight]

So, if South Dakota high school students who would normally be considered for South Dakota athletic scholarships were disenfranchised by an unequal application of the state law because said law would not apply to the state university system, they should have no standing to bring complaint?

I'm confused by your question. How can anything involving athletic scholarships deprive anyone of the right to vote? What does declining to create a private cause of action for damages for anyone "indirectly harmed" by a violation have to do with "unequal application of the state law"?

Clearer?
