The Michigan High School Athletic Association is headed to the Supreme Court over a gender equity lawsuit and AD Jack Roberts is feeling the irony. The gender equity lawsuit would force the Michigan schools to move girls' basketball to the winter and girls' volleyball to the fall. The argument is based on aligning scheduling with the sports' traditional NCAA seasons. The irony is that the NCAA coaches have been discussing the merits of moving womens' basketball to the fall.

"It has been a continual topic at coaches' meetings, but it has not made it to an NCAA committee," Roberts said in the Saginaw News article. "The thrust now is not to switch the sports, because there really is no need to. They could both play in the fall. Major colleges can play volleyball and women's basketball at the same time because the athletes are different. In high school, many of the athletes are the same."
