    The Duluth YMCA said an official was removed from a swim meet Sunday after attempting to disqualify a swimmer for wearing a “Black Lives Matter” swimsuit.

    The meet was held at Superior High School. The YMCA said an “independent volunteer official inappropriately barred a student-athlete from taking part in the meet.”
