The long-hair deal with the OSU women has befuddled me for the past several years..... I can't imagine an athlete willing to put up with the work involved with long, long hair....not only its maintenance and hygiene, but looking after it in the course of the game. Jelena, for example, wipes the hair off her forehead, and re-aligns it incessantly when she is on the court....
Obviously, they have their preferences, but, as a long time coach, I honestly expected a lot more of the female players to opt for short, easy-to-manage hair - just as a matter of convenience and practicality...Go figure!! GO BEAVS!!

Convenience and practicality. I remember a young woman that did that once...... in the previous century. You don't think the hair on some of the men's team hasn't been a bit of work (See Thompson brothers as examples). Women in general have longer hair them men. They know how to deal... By way of full disclosure...I'm not an athlete, but am an athletic supporter...And had my every 6 week #4 buzz cut done today (mostly bald already ) I should have just said that at that age practicality at that age isn't a huge concern. Or so my dim memory tells me.
