For former Connecticut track star Chelsea Mitchell, competing against transgender athletes — biological males — was “devastating.”
Mitchell opened up about her past experience in an editorial published Sunday in USA Today. She explained why she and three other athletes filed a lawsuit last year against the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference over the state’s decision to allow transgender athletes to compete on the teams that correlate with their determined sex and gender identity.
Mitchell competed against biologically male athletes for most of her high school career and said that continuous losses to those trans athletes were demoralizing to her and other girls in the sport.
She expressed how crushing it was to lose “four women’s state championship titles, two all-New England awards, and numerous other spots on the podium to male runners. I was bumped to third place in the 55-meter dash in 2019, behind two male runners. With every loss, it gets harder and harder to try again.”
