The result of this to my eyes took the color from purple to an almost gray color. All night I thought this was somewhat annoying, separating the white from the almost gray. Not until I got home did it dawn on me that this is not only annoying but illegal, is it not?

3-4-6: The torso of the team jersey shall be the same single solid color from the base of the neck to the bottom of the team jersey, and from side insert to side insert.

I would definately say they were illegal by rule. You should let your assignor know so he/she can call the school and/or state and advise them of the uniforms.

Your in LA right? Was this an LA team?
