A biologically male runner who identifies as a female has been dominating high school girls’ cross-country track competitions across Maine since he transitioned following a lackluster freshman season competing against other boys.
The student, a junior at the Maine Coast Waldorf School in Freeport, dominated at the Western Maine Conference Championship in Standish on Wednesday, Oct. 16.
He took first place in the five-kilometer cross-country run.
The dominant long-distance runner defeated the second-place finisher, Zoe Carroll from York High School, by one second, finishing the 5k in 20 minutes and 29 seconds compared to Carroll’s 20:30.
Although he took first place competing against the girls, his performance was far from impressive when comparing his times against the other high school boys who ran the meet.
The top male runner, Aiden Ring, finished the 5K in 16:58, while the 1st place girls’ runners’ time would have placed him in 43rd place.
His herculean triumph over female runners in the Western Maine Conference Championship race rocketed his overall ranking in cross-country runs, bringing him up to second place overall among girls cross-country runners from class C schools in the state, according to a site that tracks runners’ performances.
Before that race, he was ranked fifth overall.
Whether male students who identify as female should be allowed to compete against female students has been a hot topic in schools and adult sports leagues across the country for several years. Because men’s natural physical advantages in athletic contests don’t disappear when they begin identifying as female, some have claimed that trans athletes have an unfair advantage over their competitors.
The Maine Principals Association’s (MPA) policy allows athletes to compete based on gender identity rather than biological sex “unless such participation would result in an unfair athletic advantage or would present an unacceptable risk of injury to other student-athletes.”
The MPA does not consider Waldorf school runner’s biological sex an “unfair advantage” when he competes against girls in the 5k run.
Last year, The Maine Wire covered the young man’s fifth-place ranking in the 5k at the Maine XC Festival of Champions.
In the same race in 2022, prior to his transition, he competed with the boys and ranked 206th.
Wont matter much, dems going to send them to war anyway. Perhaps his foxhole mates will remember how pretended to be a girl.
Like Cramer on Seinfeld beating the crap out of the “kids” karate class, and that boy who beat the crap out of that girl by pulling her hair and slamming her head into the ground as the school principal and bus driver looked on like they were WWF referees, instead of grabbing that puke and giving him a taste of his own medicine.
His parents are as foolish as he
It’s a good thing for the guy that I’m not a student in Freeport high school or his days of beating girls would be over . Someone has to stand up against this nonsense . It’s not fair . It’s not honest . It’s not American . We need to take control of this state and this country and stamp out this insanity .
Another example of how evil the democrat party have become. They’re a collective group of people who have seriously lost their way. Unfortunately the leadership has decided the lake of fire is okay as long as they can take as many people with them. They’re the party of death. They’re the party of lies. Their leader is the angel of lies. Liberalism used to be a policy even republicans can sometimes get behind. They accuse republicans of being “extremists”. Killing babies the day before birth, pretending boys can be girls and then allowing them to compete against girls in athletics. And women continue to vote democrat blindly and in mass telling high school and college age girls to get to the back of the bus and shut up. Sound familiar. OMG I’m glad I had boys. If you are a female athlete there will come a day when every sports record will be held by a biological male.
“The MPA does not consider Waldorf school runner’s biological sex an ‘unfair advantage’.” We really are living in Bizarro World.
This is purely male abuse on females. Where’s the massive outcry from liberal women? Any guy who THINKs he’s a girl has a very sick, unhealthy psychological issue. This fakery can’t and shouldn’t continue! If you support this big lie, you are intertwined with the problem…total moral decay. What gets me is, a guy goes into a GYN office to see the doctor because he missed his period and believes he’s pregnant 😂😅😆🤣 I truly want to know how the doctor handles this situation. Anybody know, please share…
Of all places, NY high school girls recently protested this insanity
There is hopw
The MPA is a bunch of gutless fools that have thrown Maines female athletes under the bus. They should “ man up” and reconsider their policy regarding trans participation in girls sports.
The Maine Principles Association …..the same association that Paul Bickford is in …the guy from Oxford Hills HS …..trying to get his students to be good little democrat drones . Remember him ?
This is obviously a real high quality organization representing educators with impeccable character and good moral judgement . ( my ass )
You can’t fix stupid and you can’t fix woke . Vote it out is the only way to get rid of it .
The time has come to clean up Maine and give control to republicans .
I don’t understand why the rest of us are forced to play make believe with these weirdo’s. This has set women’s rights back 100 years
Just another loser who has to be a winner.
Women’s rights advocates should be all in to stop this abuse of females at all age levels; but they likely believe that if you identify as female, you are one. At some point, this bizarre break from cultural norms will revert to sanity. Just hope I live long enough to experience the reversal.
When did school MPA stop being the “adults in the room”? Girls’ you got three choices.
1: keep competing and losing and pretending this is okay.
2: Follow courage’s university girls and refuse to compete.
3: (quickest results) As soon as the starter pistol is fired, pig pile him and kick the dog snot out of him, until he can’t crawl let alone run, then turn of the first “adult” that tried to interfere and give him/her a solid tune up.
good lord, who cares. quit being so mean to a literal child and let them live. this does not effect your life, so quit being transphobic and learn some human decency.
If the individual wanting to compete in a girl’s sport is suspected of being male, then it must be verified and BEFORE competing must be ensured and certified by a panel of three to have been born a girl! Enough of this nonsense – stop feeding people food that makes them insane!
And while we are at let’s realize that girls/women do not need to participate in boy’s clubs such as Boy Scouts, sports, and men only clubs!
A little late to the story here. He’s been climbing up the girl ranks for several years.
Y-chromosomes do amazing things in women’s sports.
It’s also about locker room access. It’s sad to say but Republicans need to present legislation that legally defines XX and XY as female and male respectively. This is the beginning point for future bills.
This queer’s parents must be REAL ASSHOLES to let their sick in the head kid do this to his fellow schoolmates . They need to move their whole damn family to California or Minnesota or somewhere where this kind of stuff is accepted . It ain’t acceptable here in Maine . Time for a change in Augusta and Washington . Send these losers packing .
If he still has his pee pee, he’s a male. The MPA is playing “let’s pretend” and they’re supposed to be the adults in the room?! Gutless left-wing ideologues!
The real story here is Maine cross country is garbage. Within 10 miles of my house in Ohio, there are 50 girls who could beat this guy, several going sub 19:00.
What is this world coming to… There is male and female, genitalia does not lie. It is truly unfare to the true females. This person is living a lie and wants everyone to believe it, as well. When will those who are in authority come to thier sense and not allow people who identify and the opposite of their sex to be forbidden. “The earth is the devil’s domain…he is the father of all lies and he has put blinders on all who agree that this is ok. His greatest accomplishment is that people do not believe he exists…look around folks, and be on guard…I Peter 5:8,9 boldly warns, “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith.” To be forewarned is to be prepared!
They will scream and cry about women’s rights and then sit back and watch some guy totally trample said rights and applaud
This is completely WRONG! Why is it that we have to pretend that this young man is a girl he’s NOT AND NEVER Will Be! STAND UP FOR NOW OUR DAUGHTERS AND GRANDDAUGHTERS BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!
Absolutely absurd. Stop the madness and keep “boys” out of girls sports and locker rooms!!!
Jesus, you people are obsessed with this kid. Honestly, who gives a fuck? It’s not like any of the runners in this particular race are getting D1 college track scholarships.
Excellent perfectly written article hitting all the salient points. This is exactly how to report a story like this. Well done – thank you.
Trump just said in an interview that he will stop this .
I believe he will .
Vote Trump .
