"It was her dream to get a scholarship one day, be one of the first female football players in college. She really had big dreams," said Cassy Blythe, Maddy's mom.

Maddy and her mom told Dore the CEO of the school said boys have lustful thoughts and bad language and cited the Bible.

"That men and women are created equal but different, and he said that he prayed about it and it was the wrong thing to do," Maddy said.
