They are not required to play a game as a condition of being in school. The athletes knew that being present and standing for any and all anthems was a condition of being in the tournament.
The freedom of speech does not and should not exempt you from speech.
Nothing in your response addresses the inconsistency of celebrating patriotism by restricting freedom.

No freedom is restricted. They are voluntarily part of the team (it’s not a condition of enrollment or obtaining a degree). Ergo they voluntarily submit to the conditions of being on the team and of being in the tournament.
They tournament could require them to stand for baby shark as a condition of being their and if the athletes chose to participate in the tournament they will be present and standing for babyshark. The song played is irrelevant in regards to their obligation to be present and standing.
