One of the runners wore a pair of black compression shorts under his running shorts. At issue was the white stitching visible on the shorts. This violated Rule 9, Section 6, Article 1b of the National Federation of High Schools rule book, which states: “Items displaying seams stitched on the outside of the garment in a visible contrasting color to the undergarment will be illegal beginning with the 2009-10 school year.”

The situation must have been a huge disappointment to the runners.
