Orthodox Basketball Players and Shabbat

Here's an interesting article about a female Orthodox basketball player who left Israel to play basketball at the University of Toledo. She'll play in games on Shabbat but won't go to practices and has made other accommodations to make sure that her religious standards can be kept. Thoughts? Is it possible to live in both worlds? How far can we compromise without going to far? What do you think of her decisions?
