Hill v. National Collegiate Athletic Association
California Supreme Court
865 P.2d 633 (1994)
Relevant factsFree
Hill and other Stanford student athletes (plaintiffs) sued the NCAA (defendant) over its drug testing program, which required disclosing medications and medical information, urinating in front of a monitor, and providing urine samples revealing bodily substances; the trial court ruled for Hill, finding the program violated privacy interests, was overbroad in banning useful medications, lacked a compelling need since athletes did not use drugs more than other students, and that the NCAA failed to prove certain banned drugs actually enhanced performance. The NCAA appealed.
IssueFree
Whether the NCAA's drug testing program violates student athletes' legally protected privacy interests.
