Answer:

C. The games were too closely related to an official school activity, showing religious support.

Explanation:

The Lemon Test is a Test created by the US Supreme Court to test whether a law or governmental activity violated the First Amendment or not. This test has been used since the case of Everson v. Board of Education in 1947. If student-led prayer failed the Lemon Test it means that there is the excessive government entanglement prong to the test.
