Supreme Court Takes Up Cases That Could Redefine Women’s Sports

By Stacy Robinson, Sam Dorman | The Epoch Times

Selina Soule was a high school track and field champion in Connecticut, holding multiple state conference titles and school records.

But when male athletes who identified as transgender started competing against her, Soule said her prospects of winning diminished.

“It didn’t matter how much time I put in, in practice; how much extra effort I put in. There was nothing I could do to win the race,” Soule, who graduated from Glastonbury High School in 2020, told The Epoch Times.

Soule’s sentiments have been common in the ongoing national debate surrounding males competing in female sports.

The Supreme Court on Jan. 13 is set to weigh in on the issue by hearing cases challenging state laws barring boys from competing in girls’ sports.
