“It’s really hard to transfer in high school,” Morgan Anderson told CBS4. “With a mask, one-way hallways, no lockers. It’s just really difficult to find your spot. I wanted to play sports so I could be involved.”

By CBS Denver Staff:

BROOMFIELD, Colo. (CBS4) – The family of a high school volleyball player says she is unfairly missing out on the current season of her favorite sport because the Colorado High School Activities Association is interpreting their own rules in a way that prevents her from competing this year. The sophomore transferred to a new school in January for in-person learning but found out later she was not eligible to join the varsity volleyball team.

“It was really isolating, not seeing my friends, not seeing my teachers,” said Morgan Anderson, describing her remote learning experience. “All the students didn’t have their cameras on to help the connectivity, and it was just, you’re alone.”
