Transgender teen wins regional wrestling title despite attempt to ban him from competing

The winning wrestler pulled a tearful runner-up next to him on the victory stand, and they exchanged a hug after a match that never took place. Mack Beggs, a transgender 17-year-old at Euless Trinity, won the girls 110-pound championship at Saturday's Class 6A Region II wrestling meet after a Coppell wrestler forfeited the final. Beggs, a junior, is taking testosterone while transitioning from female to male. Madeline Rocha's forfeit came 11 days after a lawsuit was filed against the University Interscholastic League by Coppell attorney and wrestling parent Jim Baudhuin, urging the governing body to suspend Beggs because of the use of the steroid.

Imagine that. Testosterone injections just cost a female athlete a fair chance at going to the state championship. Guaranteed in 5 years women's sports will be full of Y chromosomes and steroids.

Men need to start “identifying” as girls and whoop up on all of their sports.

let’s get a bunch of huge black football players from the D, or baltimo and put wigs on them. Send them to the next Olympics to play against the Japanese Ladies’ team. I’d love to watch that.

So she identifies as a male except for the sport of wrestling, when she's a female. How convenient.

watched a track race, and saw a guy win the race, but her problem was that it was a woman’s race. If I was any of those women I would have been so pissed off. This guy was way out in front.

If the NBA, and NFL want their cross dressing mentally disturbed bathrooms then let those men go into a woman’s team and lets see how that works out then.

If a guy is not good enough to compete against men then all they have to do is go to a woman’s team and then win

That is EXACTLY what will happen. Identity politics will finally have met itself when trannies dominate all female athletics and born females will be pushed to the back of the bus.

The dinosaurs in charge of TX high school sports better wake up and change the UIL rules. Why are drugs for allergies banned, but testosterone injections aren’t banned? That is definitely a performance enhancing drug that should not be allowed.

Whackadoodle leftwinger parents have undoubtedly been encouraging this very confused behavior in their child for the past several years.
By listening to the insane mainstream media, they would have us all believe that 15% of the population is transgender. Nonsense!

What a supremely confusing article and situation. Girl takes testosterone to “become” boy, wins wrestling championship as girl, because other girls don’t wrestle. Can’t wrestle as boy because she doesn’t have a penis.

Meanwhile grandma is on the side screaming slogans - its not about wrestling, its about overcoming hate!

There was a girl wrestling in my weight class when I was in high school, she won most matches by screaming that the male wrestler grabbed her inappropriately

Clearly the solution is to end “women’s” sports and make everyone compete together in the same league.

Male, female, screwed up individual of psychosexual misidentity...

This is why we cannot have nice things.

I don’t get this one. He/She identifies as male, taking male hormones, why isn’t he/she competing in male sports.

The transgender runner was male identifying as female and competed as a woman.

But this case is the opposite. Identifies as male taking male hormones, but competing as female.

They might as well get rid of women sports altogether.

Feminism is turning out to be the victory of testosterone, who’da thunk?

Some women think having men be a homosexual , or cross dress is funny, cute, and OK. They go out of their way to compete with their friends to have as many of these weirdo’s as possible as friends to show off.

These same women are the ones who will get bent out of shape once men compete in all women sports and force women out of their team and success.

Well I say enjoy what you wanted as I want n o part to their perverted , sick, twisted agenda, and have done, and will do my fight against them.
