"Tuck your hair in your shirt!"

[bainsey]

There's one I've never heard before.

MS girls. One girl had long, thick, blonde hair that was covering her number. At the earliest dead ball, I went to the coach, saying she needed a sub.

"Hey (name), tuck your hair in your shirt!"

That'll probably be one of my favorite lines of the year, but we still needed a sub. (Had it been travel or rec, I could allow that.) A few minutes later, she came back with her hair in a bun.

Still, that line sticks with me. I can't believe there's any rule against tucking your hair in your jersey (unless I missed something). I can't imagine there's any safety factor involved. Anyone know anything about this?
