A girls' track meet in Maine became the subject of widespread controversy after a trans athlete dominated multiple running events. The incident took place as the state faces internal and federal pressure to keep trans athletes out of girls' sports, and a lawsuit over the issue from President Donald Trump’s administration.
A trans-identifying athlete who competed for North Yarmouth Academy in Yarmouth, Maine, won the girls' 800-meter and 1600-meter events. In October 2023, Fox News Digitalreported that this athlete was transgender. Fox News Digital has reached out to North Yarmouth Academy for comment.
