Just to let you know...only 12 runners were DQd for the wristbands. The rest were for other jewelry infractions. The news including ESPN and the Virginia Pilot will not post the correct information. VHSL (Virginia High School League) notified coaches, principals, etc. in the weekly update on Oct. 4, 2004 that according to NFHS (National Federation of State High School Associations )the Livestrong wristbands must be removed during participation and that they are to be considered jewelry. The controversial cross country event took place on October 6, 2004.
