The woman, identified as Alecia D. Kitts was free to leave the stadium if she did not wish to wear a mask. The school district had established the rule that spectators at the game were required to wear a mask to attend, which was widely publicized before and as spectators entered the game, The Marietta Times reported.
From The Marietta Times :
the junior high school assistant principal Adam Twiss was also present asking the MCS mother to comply and put her mask, seen in the videos in her right pocket, back on.
"I'm grateful that it didn't happen in Marietta, but it saddens me that it was Marietta that caused it in Logan," said Venderlic. "As athletic directors, we've talked about this too and the biggest challenge about dealing with visiting fans is people behave much better at home than when they're on the road."

Schultheiss said the venue hosted 300 fans for the game Wednesday, with only two individuals, the alleged mother and grandmother in the videos, who were "having issues with compliance."
"This rule has been in effect since we were told we could play," said Schultheiss. "Everyone that came through ticketing tonight was reminded, we had regular announcements over the PA reminding you that mouths and noses needed to be covered and we had signs at the bathrooms."
Both Venderlic and Hampton asked that all fans remember what the rules are, with the focus and goal to allow students to play.
"The governor and the (Ohio) health department have made it very clear that masks are required indoor and outdoor at sports facilities. They're just part of the expectation," said Venderlic. "They're one of the requirements the OHSAA (Ohio High School Athletic Association) brought down and said that if we're going to be able to have fall sports we're going to have to social distance and we're going to have to wear masks."
In review of the videos, it appears that the woman arrested had a mask in her right pocket, with American flag imagery printed upon it.
"I am really disappointed," said Hampton after learning of the incident. "If you chose not to (wear a mask) then you threaten not only our ability to have sports but put your ability to watch as a spectator in jeopardy as well."
Hampton praised the work of his staff and noted compliance and efforts to return children to classrooms, sporting events and extracurriculars.
"Instead, we're talking about an individual who didn't follow the rules and made a spectacle of herself," said Hampton.
