Kenny GallagherHostFirst of all, in the state of Washington, they have had a number of cases now recently where girls in girls sports are standing up for themselves and starting to take a stand against sexism.
She was up for a cross-country race where she was running for the right to appear on the state track meet, the girls' cross-country track meet.
they had talked off and on because there was a couple of times during the year that they had run up against Camas Washington High School, who has a runner who started the year running on the boys' cross-country team and then evidently didn't do well enough there, so he turned around and said, you know, I feel like a girl.
She, or he, whatever, this individual, was one of the finalists to go on the cross, to run on this district meet against Elsie Byer.
Because you know what? He's a guy, and I'm a girl, and I run on the girls' team.
She, Elisa Byer, walked off the course, just walked over to her mother, Siona, who was standing on the side.
And her daughter walked up to her tearful, grabbed her mother and said, I can't do this.
This was certainly not how Elsie, a sophomore at Battleground High School, pictured her season ending when the school year began.
And she felt terrible about her, but her mother said, you know what, I'm so proud of her for standing up for herself and for all girls that are competing.
They had met this Camus in a dual meet earlier, and it was just simply not going to compete because he was a bigger, stronger, better stride.
