I think its supposed to incite the idea that she is being treated unfairly because of her religious beliefs, and also, the comment at the end of the article about her having the fastest time effectively leaves the impression that they are getting rid of the fastest runner to make room for the "regular" kids.
At least...that's what I got out of it.
I also find it difficult to believe that her coach didn't tell her ahead of time that she would have to have a plain unitard. I would be interested to know who dropped the ball, communication-wise. If she was told, then she is solely to blame, and it looks like
she is simply defying the rules for the sake of defying them.
If she wasn't informed ahead of time of the requirement, or of a rule change, whether on paper, by her coach or otherwise, then
that would point to some unfair treatment. Especially if she was allowed to compete last year in the same unitard, as the article states. I'm just not buying that as the complete story.
