'This is blatantly wrong and unfair.”
Earlier this year, former University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines competed against University of Pennsylvania transgender swimmer Lia Thomas in the 200-yard freestyle final at the NCAA Women’s Championships.During an interview with Mobile, AL radio’s FM Talk 106.5, Gaines discussed how the NCAA seemed to favor Thomas given every opportunity, which she said later called “political.”
“But that next day, after Thomas won the national title, Thomas and I competed against each other in the 200-yard freestyle,” Gaines continued. “Miraculously enough, we actually tied. So we went the exact same time down to the hundredth of a second. Upon tying, we go behind the award’s podium where the NCAA official passes out the trophies, but he looks at us and says, ‘Hey, great job. You guys tied. We only have one trophy, so we’re going to give it to Lia.
