UPenn transgender swimmer continues dominant season with more record-breaking wins

A 22-year old transgender swimmer at the University of Pennsylvania continued her dominant performance this season — setting numerous pool, meet and program records at a three-day event in Ohio last weekend.

Lia Thomas blew away her competition Friday night in the 500-yard freestyle preliminaries and finals at the Zippy Invitational at the University of Akron, according to results posted by the school.

In the finals, Thomas notched a winning time of 4:34.06 — good enough for a new Ivy League record.

The swimmer continued smashing records on Saturday with a nearly 7-second victory in the 200-yard freestyle with a time of 1:41.93 — representing the fastest finish in the country, the school said.

Over the weekend, Thomas also set a new program, meet and pool record in the 1650-yard freestyle. She finished that race in 15:59.71 — more than 38 seconds ahead of second-place finisher, and teammate, Anna Kalandadze.

Wow she's so talented! Just HOW does she do it? Maybe next they can enter animals into sports because we SO need "equity"! How about entering a gorilla into mens wrestling? How about entering a cheetah into the mens 100 yard dash or a kangaroo into the long jump competition?

It’s long past time for the actual, natural-born, XX women to say “We’re not going to participate in this travesty”.

Wasn’t competitive while a guy so just decided to be a woman.

Seems like the end of women’s sports to me. Bet the feminists never saw that one coming...

I hope to God the spectators turn their backs and remain dead silent when this cheating-loser-baby-man wins.

Yep, I don’t know why they agree to this. I sure as hell wouldn’t, it’s blatant cheating using a BS excuse that it’s equality when it’s the exact opposite.

They finally found a way to make women’s sports even more ridiculous. But on the other hand, this might make it more entertaining.

I agree it’s cheating. It takes balls to be so blatant about it.

Great, leave the college sports to men and get the ladies back into cooking and cleaning 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This guy, mmmmm person is single handed pointing out the stupidity of Liberal programs and plans. I hope he destroys female swimming in college.

Libs destroy everything they touch!

By the way, does anyone know or even care his, her, it’s chosen pronouns which we can use this week?

Let’s see if “Lia” can still win when “Michelle” Phelps gets in the pool.

On one hand, good for college administrators to finally figure out how to screw over jocks and make women’s sports interesting. It used to be “which woman is the fastest swimmer”. Now it’s a much more interesting proposition trying to find out if any woman is a faster swimmer than a mentally ill man.

I’m sure all those former athletes at Penn who are getting fundraising letters this fall are opening up their wallets and giving generously.

Tax the endowment slush funds that allow these things to fester, and change the college loan program rules to stop allowing students to rack up additional student debt in grad school (grad programs may be a bigger racket than the endowments) and a lot of the garbage that we hear about on college campuses goes away overnight.

I hope all the women who have so strongly supported the “woke” agenda appreciate what they have done.

Madness.

The left and their entire ‘trans’ movement are DNA-deniers, as DNA is settled science so that makes them anti-science to boot. They want the worst for America, and always try to drag her down. I saw an article showing they are even dejected when their anti-science doesn’t pan out, “Dr. Fauci on Omicron Variant: ‘The Signals Are a Bit Encouraging Regarding the Severity’”, and you can give that a look at CNSnews. Masses of people NOT dying from the Xi (proper next letter in naming scheme) variant and he says “a bit”. Okay Mengele! Leftists are raising communist China up by destroying America from within.
