We had a first place runner disqualified in a state open track sprint final last year for an illegal uniform. I mostly blame the coach, who should have known the rules, maybe the runner, if he knew, and chose to ignore the rules, and some blame must go to any officials who may have "passed" on this during the regular track season, and sectional meets.
