Yet, not real example of racism was ever provided in this "in-depth" article. Sorry, playing defense isn't evidence of racism. Seems to me, the Post woulda loved a nice piece of racism to add to the article but just couldn't find any.
Getting a Red card for calling "I got Ball", yeah, there's def more to that story.

I guess the USA Team Coach, her high school coach and the American Select coaches are all racist as well considering she plays/played Defense for all of those teams... [/quote]
I didn’t read that she had a problem playing defense.  Her mom was saying they would only allow her to play defense.  If a kid wants to learn different positions and you restrict them, that hurts their development as a player.  If she tells her high school coach she wants to try some different positions or she will find a new high school, what do you think her coach is going to do?[/quote]

I would hope, "good luck" (and actually mean it).

I don't get this whole "I should get to pick my position" thing that seems to have invaded youth sports. Play where the coach tells you to play and be happy to be playing.

Right, so you can play your own kid at the position you want them to play and build the team around them.  If the other kids don’t reach their potential who cares.  
GTFOH with that BS! This young lady got hip to the game, didn’t feel she was being played right in certain situations, and found a team or teams where she could play and develop into the role she wanted.  And I would bet my bottom dollar she can play the position those coaches wouldn’t let her play better than who the have in that position now.
