I'd be taking a chance either way, and from what I've seen from CHSAA on this issue in the past, it would be less of a chance my way. They tend to rule towards allowing things like this (non-safety issues) for religious reasons.
But it's already been ruled by the NFHS that she can't legally wear jeans under her shorts, even for religious reasons. I honestly can't see any state going against a definitive NFHS ruling like that when all the player has to do to be legally dressed is remove the shorts and just wear the long pants. And you're not taking a chance with telling the player that either because you have specific language to that effect in that case play to back you up.
