Title: "Lawsuit"
--------------------------------------------------------------------
January 16, 1993
In 1989, a Union Bridge, Md., high school permitted a female student,
Tawana Hammond, 17, to try out for its football team under the
pressure of a federal statute that bars school discrimination on the
basis of gender.
On her first scrimmage, Tawana, a running back, was tackled and
suffered massive internal injuries.
In October 1992, she filed a $1.5 million lawsuit against the county
board of education for its alleged failure to tell her how dangerous
football is.
