As the girls’ high school track and field championships approach, a trans athlete is set to compete in this year’s girls’ tournament.
The main controversy centers on AB Hernandez, a biological male high school student at Jurupa Valley High School in Riverside County. Hernandez qualified for and competed in the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) State Track & Field Championships in Clovis in the girls’ long jump, high jump, and triple jump.
Hernandez is seeded first in the upcoming tournament.
Last year, Hernandez won 1st place in high jump and triple jump and took 2nd place in the long jump.
