no it is not a violation. also, most of those kids will not be going on to run in the NCAA. is giving a discount to kids at restaurants a violation? no, its just a discount. however, if the store did not offer discounts, and then one kid who was particularly good came in and got a discount because he was so good, then yes, that would be a violation. but they are offering to every high school kid, the same way a lot stores give military discounts, or for people in specific running clubs, or anything else.
Kind of.
If he gave a discount only to high school cross country runners, that's probably (technically) a violation. Giving a discount to all NCAA football players, for instance, would be a violation.
A discount to all high school aged kids, however, would not be a violation.
