Rule allowing boys to play on girls' teams challenged

Article here. Excerpt:

'A dispute around a decades-old law that allows boys to play on girls high school sports teams appears to be headed to court.

Attorneys representing the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association — which says it would like to see the law changed to make sure girls do not lose athletic opportunities and for safety reasons — and state Attorney General Kathleen Kane's office met Friday afternoon in Commonwealth Court.

"It looks like we are headed toward an evidentiary hearing of some sort," said Pittsburgh attorney Mary Grenen, following the status conference between the two sides. Grenen is a potential intervenor in the case on behalf of her daughter, a Fox Chapel field hockey player.'
