Dad of high school track star disqualified over celebration believes decision came with racial motivations
Clara Adams and her father, David, continued to speak out after the teen sprinter had been disqualified from the California state championships over an 'unsportsmanlike' celebration. David Adams believes the penalty is motivated, in part, by race. Clara Adams, 16, was competing in the CIF State Championships when she won the 400-meter dash, leading the North Salinas High School sophomore to celebrate by using a fire extinguisher on her running spikes, in homage to famed sprinter Maurice Greene. Advertisement 3 David Adams, handed his daughter Clara a fire extinguisher, and away from her competitors, she sprayed on her shoes as if they were on fire. Oceanside Dolphins Track Club/YouTube CIF officials almost immediately approached her and eventually stripped her of her state title and disqualified her from her other events. Since then, the story has garnered national attention, and Adams' father has alleged that there is a racial component to the situation, explaining during an appearance on 'The Will Cain Show' on Fox News that the belief stems from a 'history in our country.' Advertisement 'I say that because you look at the governing body, you look at the officials that are on the grass, on the grass area,' David Adams said. 'I know for a fact, with the history in our country when it comes to celebrations, when a white girl celebrates or a white boy celebrates, it's called, he's passionate. He's good for the sport. We need this for the sport. 3 Clara Adams was disqualified from the race. Oceanside Dolphins Track Club/YouTube 'But when a black girl or a black boy or a brown girl or a black boy, they celebrate, it's deemed as unprofessional, unsportsmanlike. It's ghetto. So why is it OK for one to celebrate, not the other? We have seen that before. It's nothing new. I'm not making this up.' Cain did acknowledge that 'there is some merit to what you're saying' in response to David Adams' explanation. Advertisement Clara Adams has said she was 'set into shock' when she was disqualified from the state championship. 'It was just really disappointing, because they just took my moment away from me that quick,' she told Cain. 'You know, you think about, like, how long I have taken, me and my dad, to work for this moment. And then just for them to take it in minutes, it just — it's unbelievable.' 3 Clara Adams, the high school track star stripped of her Calfornia state title over celebration paying homage to Olympic gold medalist, sits with her father David. ksbw Advertisement The CIF has not publicly commented on the controversy surrounding Adams. Adams does have support from one track star, with Green telling local outlet, KSBW, that if the celebration 'was away from everyone and not interfering with anyone, I would say reinstate her.'

Winning High school track star disqualified over celebration breaks down, says: ‘I feel robbed'
The California high school track star disqualified from the CIF State Championships for celebrating her win with a fire extinguisher broke down as she spoke of the moment her dreams went up in smoke. 'I worked so hard for that title,' a tearful Clara Adams, 16, told KSBW amid the ongoing controversy. The North Salinas High School sophomore was stripped of her state championship title over the weekend after she paid homage to an Olympic gold medalist Maurice Greene just moments after winning her 400-meter event. 5 Clara Adams' post-race celebration resulted in her disqualification and the stripping of her state championship title. ksbw A viral clip showed the excited teen running over and taking a fire extinguisher from her proud father before she started spraying off her spikes. California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) officials ended up disqualifying the teen sprinter and stripping her of the title after deeming the celebratory stunt unsportsmanlike. Several people who appeared to be CIF officials could be seen watching on as looked on as Clara sprayed her shoes. One of them approached her soon after the celebration and led her away, the footage shows. 'I don't know what's going through my mind right now,' the teen told the Mercury News in the aftermath. 'I'm disappointed and I feel robbed. I am in shock. They [officials] yelled at me and told me, 'We're not letting you on the podium.' They took my moment away from me.' 5 Her proud father, David, handed his daughter a fire extinguisher, and away from her competitors, she sprayed on her shoes as if they were on fire. Oceanside Dolphins Track Club/YouTube 5 Maurice Greene celebrates as teammates spray his feet with a fire extinguisher after winning the Men's 100 meter with a time of 9.86 during the Home Depot Invitational, the first invitational stop on USA Track & Field's 2004 Outdoor Golden Spike Tour on May 22, 2004 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California. Getty Images Her father, who is also her coach, is adamant his daughter did nothing wrong — insisting that she wasn't near any of her fellow competitors when she carried out the stunt. 'When she blew the fire extinguisher, the opponents were gone,' her dad, David, said in the KSBW interview. 5 Adams holding the fire extinguisher. @OceansideDolphins/YouTube 'That was our moment of celebration, and CIF officials made it about them. The crowd went crazy, they loved it, the CIF booth went crazy, they loved it. But those few guys in those jackets took offense to it, didn't like it, and made a decision based off emotions.' The decision came just moments before she was slated to run in the 200-meter event, which she had been of the favorites to win. The ruling meant she wasn't allowed to compete. The decision to disqualify the track star immediately sparked widespread outrage. 5 Her father, who is also her sprinting coach, is adamant that his daughter did nothing wrong, and when she celebrated, she wasn't near any of her competitors in the 400m sprint. Oceanside Dolphins Track Club/YouTube Maurice Greene, the sprinting icon who made the celebration famous, was among those who urged officials to overturn the decision. 'When I heard, cause it happened, and then people just started calling me 'This girl who just ran the 400 did your celebration' I was like huh? What?' Greene said. 'If it was away from everyone and not interfering with anyone, I would say reinstate her.' Under CIF's code of conduct, athletes are expected to 'be a good sport, teach and model class, be gracious in victory and accept defeat with dignity; encourage student-athletes to give fallen opponents a hand, compliment extraordinary performance, and show sincere respect in pre- and post-game rituals.'
