Controversy solved,
The Star guard for the University of Toledo and All Mac Selection Naama Shafir who happens to also be an orthodox Jew has been disallowed to wear a t-shirt under her uniform in the Women's FIBA basketball championships in Poland, as it's in Violation of FIBA Uniform code, and in Shafirs case it's a little immodest. After some back and forth talks The Israeli Spokesman announced a compromise was reached that she can wear Skin toned Elastic sleeves. I see both sides of the argument on this Issue and tend to Side with FIBA as a Separation of Sport and religion. She was the MVP of the Women's NIT after scoring 40 points. The game was on the Sabbath, she got special permission from her Rabbi to play and didn't give interviews after the game, Admirable.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiqQqeuS7q4
