The American Civil Liberties Union recently filed a class-action lawsuit in southern Virginia on behalf of 11 female athletes and their parents against the Virginia High School League, alleging a violation of Title IX because of the way the league schedules some girls' sports.
The suit was filed in U.S. District Court in Charlottesville on behalf of students at Lakeland and Nansemond River High Schools in the Tidewater region.
The suit alleges the league, which is the sanctioning body for the 282 public high schools in Virginia, discriminates because it does not schedule sports seasons for girls the same way it does for boys.

 Fredericksburg.com - State's false start? Educators slow to act, provide guidance on steroids Story by Adam ...
Meanwhile, the Virginia High School League, the state Department of Education and area high schools have been slow to address the issue of steroid and supplement use among athletes.
But none of the 10 high school football coaches interviewed for this story was familiar with it, and none had distributed a copy to his players.
Since no area school has a drug-testing policy, an athlete would either have to be caught possessing steroids or a school employee would have to notice signs of steroid use and then investigate.
