Gator, I just saw her racing about an hour ago in the same venue as the article, wearing the same garish rag. This time it wasn’t a tri-state meet, just a local meet but now we had two TV trucks with the booms up in the air, ready to catch the latest aggrieved Muslim poster child.
Gotta tell you, that uniform is really distracting. It is a multi-color form fitting spandex full-body raceskin. She looks like a clown. All the other competitors race with school colors on their baggy uniforms. They can get disqualified for taping their loose jerseys and along comes this special spandex creature saying her religion makes her do it.
I’m glad the officials at the tri-state meet gave her a chance to make things right and then showed her the door when she wanted special treatment.
Spare me.
BTW, she is a senior.
Some girls' teams here wear body fitting track tops and shorts, rather then baggier ones. Buying baggy uniforms is what the school chooses, not track rules. I don't think it makes a bit a difference in performance at this level if the suits are tight or not, so if baggy is cheaper that may be what schools buy.
Also, how good a runner is she?
