If you read the article, ‘contact’ has nothing to do with it. They are opposed to competition between sexes in any sport. It could be tennis or croquet. The school’s policy, rather traditional, is to separate the sexes in all athletic endeavors. And to maintain that, they were willing to forfeit the championship.

Apparently you selectively read the article, as a careful read would have enlightened you to the fact that this school had no issue with the young lady being on the roster, as long as a gentleman’s agreement that she would not play was honored.
Them’s some principles.
Then I find their stance comically naive. A desire to not compete against females in croquet or tennis is really not about respecting girls anymore, it’s about a fear of the fellas of being shown up.
