Sounds like someone missed the point the author was making...the author herself points to the fact that there is disparity between the private Catholic schools and the inner-city schools. She didn't defend that...but to point the finger at the officials and say "We lost this game because those two are racist" is inexcusable. Those two officials cannot defend themselves against that accusation because it's an accusation based on how the losing coach "feels". There is no evidence to show that the officials are racist, there is none to show that they aren't. The author is simply pointing out the fact that this losing coach used the most hot-button topic he could find to slam two people...that's sickening.
