Did I really read that the girl was asked to run approximately 5.8 miles per practice missed due to being at a funeral? I'm sorry, that's excessive and ridiculous. I'm glad the girl didn't put up with it. It seems pretty clear that she didn't need the high school team to acheive her goals as a player. I wish more athletes would stand up to people who think that the sun rises and sets around high school sports. It really doesn't.
