<div>
<p class="speakable">A parent of a female high school runner who lost to a high school boy at Saturday&#8217;s California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) race blasted the idea of boys competing in girls’ sports.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="speakable">Athena Ryan, a junior from Sonoma Academy who claims he is a girl, finished second in the race; the top three finishers qualified for the California Interscholastic Federation State Track &amp; Field Championships next week. He <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/high-school-track-star-signals-her-dismay-after-being-ousted-from-championship-by-boy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boasted after the race</a>, “I wasn’t expecting that. I dropped like 17 seconds on my season’s best in the past two weeks. After last weekend, I didn’t think I could run low 5&#8217;s again. I was just coming here trying to break 5 – just glad I finished it out.”</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>“I&#8217;m absolutely opposed to it. There&#8217;s no way this should be allowed,” the parent told <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/california-parent-whose-daughter-lost-biological-male-track-competition-says-unfair-narcissism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News Digital</a>. “Ryan was in like fifth place with 100 to go, and all of a sudden he&#8230; blew past the girls.”</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>“How do you not understand that that&#8217;s unfair?” the parent continued. “I 100% percent empathize with the need to belong and the desire to compete. [However,] you have to understand how hard these girls work to do this. You&#8217;re cheating [the sport], like the narcissism of this whole thing.”</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>The parent intimated that the girl competitors were reticent to speak out, saying, “The student athletes&#8217; reactions are very tempered and controlled as much as they can because they&#8217;re not allowed to show any reaction whatsoever to potentially not affirm what is happening. We&#8217;ve been advised that anything that potentially can come off as bullying is a code of conduct violation. And so by CIF rules [the girls are] unable to speak out about this.”</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>The bullying policy also targets parents from voicing their disapproval, the parent noted, saying that if they did so, that would be considered bullying.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>“As a former CA state champion high jumper, I think this is complete and utter nonsense. I’m embarrassed for our state and feel sorry for the girls who were cheated in the process,” Darren Marble, who<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://www.losaltosonline.com/archives/marble-wins-state-crown-in-high-jump/article_251127c6-6931-5fa9-ba66-460bb0f20b00.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">won the California state championship</a><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>in the high jump in 1998, tweeted.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>“Security removed women from the field seen holding signs in support of girls in the sectional meet,” reported the Independent Council on Women’s Sports, which describes itself as a “network of women athletes &amp; our supporters advocating for female protected categories in sport,” adding “Many parents were completely unaware there was a boy competing in girls races.”</p>
