Never understood the big deal with this. No one ever said you could not pray, employees just can't lead it. It'd be a totally different narrative if a Muslim led in prayer. Plus, what did Jesus say about public prayer in Matthew?

Thank god we aren’t a Muslim country.

I don't know why the schools would care if there was a prayer for the safety of the players during the contests of any sport or a benediction afterwards if no one was injured.  If someone didn't want to be there when the prayer was being said they could leave.  Heck, I was at the 1983 #2 Texas played #9 SMU at Texas Stadium and those heathens were yapping during the invocation before the game.
