Pregnant Athletes? Still Athletes

We’ve been a bit AWOL, but felt the ned to weigh in on the recent story from our ne k of the woods (well, at least sort of.  Texas is pretty big.)  A high school senior in Ft. Worth who was likely in line for an NCAA volleyball scholarship has had to sit out games, [...]
