Duke has a female player that looks like she could play with the men. She is big, tall, big, fast, big, hard looking, and did I say she was big. She looked like she could really bring the whoopass if needbe.

Yes, but putting artificial gender restrictions on players strikes me as somewhat sexist.

On the other hand, I see nothing wrong with mens' and womens' clubs - Sometimes, you just gotta get away - But, there's a fine line between seperation and segragation.

And given that I cannot recall any major mixed-gender sport...

But it's way to soon for an OT.

Go Terps!

IIRC, tennis has mixed-double matches, but then it's still M/F vs M/F, no M/M vs F/F or M vs F or anything like that. Just M/F vs M/F. Well, it's mixed anyways.

Like high school wrestling. I remember seeing a report on TV a few years ago: some schools that can't field both male and female teams allow mixed teams and M/F matches. Wrestlers compete within weight classes, which removes the size issue, at least on a gross level. The show featured one female wrestler (100 lb?) who was having some success against male opponents.
