Great question, and hard to answer without a NFHS definition of "like color".
Easier to answer if that player's black shorts didn't have any white trim?
Without a NFHS interpretation, I'm not betting anything more than five dollars on my answer.
What is the purpose and intent of this new rule?
Is it to allow officials to easily identify players on each team during fast paced action?
Or is to protect the integrity of high school basketball games, to prevent high school games from devolving into something like the "Wild West" or "circus" atmosphere often seen at weekly fourth grade recreation league practices in local elementary school gyms?
