from The Epoch Times:
By moving from the men’s cross country category to the women’s, a male high school sophomore has become one of the best ‘female’ runners in the state.
Former cross country runner Teagan Ewings feels a bit bewildered watching her sister, Teanne, run at high school meets.
That’s because Teanne Ewings has to run against a boy who identifies as a girl.
“When I was in high school, even the thought of a transgender athlete being in my race was not even on my radar,” 21-year-old Teagan Ewings told The Epoch Times.

But much has changed in school sports.
Even just a year ago, a 16-year-old cross-country runner from Maine Coast Waldorf School (MCWS), ran as a boy.
He placed 172nd in the state men’s cross country during his freshman year.
But then he grew his short hair out and transitioned to women’s cross country. Now, his running times allow him to be considered one of the state’s top girl runners.
In a meet on Oct. 5, he won the 5K (3.1 mile) race with a time of 18:09, beating the second-place girl, Emma Young, by 66 seconds.
Teanne Ewings ranks second overall and second in the state’s division for small-school athletes.
The Epoch Times attempted to contact the male runner, but his Instagram is private. His profile picture shows a crying child, along with the Pride flag and transgender pride flag.
The Epoch Times contacted MCWS but received no comment by publication time.
