I may have missed it, but what exactly does it mean that the IHSA made it clear to "not to go around making rulings on uniform issues as it relates to religious expression"?
Do you mean they said to let her play and not question her attire? I do understand that, if that is how it was handled. But officials are, in fact, making a ruling on the uniform issue...either by letting her play or by not letting her play.
Again, I may just have missed it and not understood it exactly.

The girl had informed the IHSA of her intentions and she was allowed to play in a uniform that was not actually legal under the rules. She was not allowed to play during a game by some officials during the season. The IHSA made it clear to let her play and that they were giving her clearance regardless of what the rules stated.
Peace
