Help me out with which moral belief is being compromised by playing a baseball game against a team with a female 2nd baseman.

I believe it would be this one, as quoted from the story: In a statement to FoxNews.com, an Our Lady of Sorrows official said the school had no choice but to forfeit because it has a strict policy prohibiting participation in co-ed athletics and believes in "forming and educating boys and girls" separately. “Teaching our boys to treat ladies with deference, we choose not to place them in an athletic competition where proper boundaries can only be respected with difficulty,” the statement read. "Our school aims to instill in our boys a profound respect for women and girls."

While I don't subscribe to the same beliefs, I certainly don't count their actually standing up for what they believe in to be wimpy.
