Numerous female competitors, some only teenagers, refused to compete against male transgender-identifying runner Sadie Schreiner, 21, during this weekend\u2019s USA Track and Field (USATF) Open Masters Championships.<\/p>\n

Schreiner, who formerly went by the first name Camden,\u00a0competed against males during high school, before joining the girls\u2019 Rochester Institute of Technology\u2019s track and field team, where he broke records.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, Schreiner took first place in the women\u2019s 400-meter dash after his two female competitors \u2014 17-year-old Anna Vidolova and 16-year-old Amaris Hiatt \u2014 did not compete in the race.<\/p>\n

Schreiner also took first place in the women\u2019s 200-meter dash, beating out female competitors as young as 14 years old,\u00a0according\u00a0to Fox News. In that race, Vidolova again chose not to compete, as well as\u00a018-year-old runner Jordan Carr, Paula Damiens, 16, and Amanda Taylor, 46.<\/p>\n

USATF has not acknowledged the female competitors\u2019 apparent protest. The organization allows males to compete in female sports in compliance with International Olympic Committee (IOC) rules.<\/p>\n

Back in 2023, Schreiner\u00a0set a school\u00a0record\u00a0for women\u2019s track and field at RIT.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew school record,\u201d RIT celebrated in an Instagram post, which has the comments turned off. \u201cSophomore Sadie Schreiner\u00a0set a new record in the 300m dash last Friday at Nazareth, clocking in a time of 41.80s.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the time, Schreiner was only referred to as \u201cSadie Rose\u201d on RIT\u2019s athletics website. His win then, as this past win, sparked major backlash online.<\/p>\n
