NFHS rule policy does have a say in what the athletes can wear. Wearing a ring is something comes under their policy and it should not be permitted by Michigan officials.

Maybe not for Track, Tom, but they do have opinions, for example;
In its basketball Officials Manual, it shows a Cardinal Principle - "n. Do not wear jewelry during a game." In its Softball Umpires Manual - Uniform-Equipment "Jewelry, except for wedding bands and medical-alert bracelets and necklaces shall not be worn."
I would guess some other sports would follow suit.
