YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Lia Thomas, 22 — who is transgender — smashed ivy league swimming records this year as a member of the University of Pennsylvania women’s team.

Recently, the NCAA announced Thomas is eligible to compete at the championships and that it would not change its rules for the 2022 swim season because it “could have unfair and potentially detrimental impacts on schools and student-athletes intending to compete in the 2022 NCAA women’s swimming championships.”
