A girls’ track meet in California was turned into a political rally on Saturday amid a growing controversy over a trans athlete who has dominated in the girls’ high-jump, long-jump and triple-jump this season.
The rally came less than two days after three of the state’s esteemed Christian high schools sent a letter to the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) challenging its longstanding policy that allows biological males in girls’ sports.
JSerra Catholic High School, Orange Lutheran High School and Crean Lutheran High School sent a joint letter to the CIF Thursday, referencing the trans athlete who competed in Saturday’s state semifinal prelims.
