The School Principal
The principal at Jill’s school, David Booz, said that he had considered appealing the ruling, but in the end, decided to let Jill focus on the rest of her meets that were coming up. He said, “There is this rule and we do have to follow it. The second issue is, is it a good rule?”
Harsh Rules
This was not the first time that Jill and her teammates had run into this kind of issue. It seems like there needs to be more clarifications made with these rules in order to avoid punishing student athletes who are just trying their hardest to play their sports.
