The 16-year-old sophomore at Rogers High School in Puyallup says she’s never experienced anything like what happened during a December 6 match with in-district rival Emerald Ridge High School.

What happened – and didn’t happen – in the two months that followed highlights the extent to which public school districts in Washington state will go to to protect trans athletes at the expense of girls – and even at the expense of following the law.
