'CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A New Hampshire judge has ruled that a high school girl can continue to play on the boys’ varsity ice hockey team even though her school has formed a girls’ team.

Seventeen-year-old Shelby Herrington made the boys’ varsity team at Bishop Brady High School three years ago, when there was no girls’ team.

Herrington is fighting a decision by the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association that she needs to switch to the girls’ team formed jointly by her school and Trinity of Manchester.'
