A male high school field hockey player severely injured a female athlete during a recent game in Massachusetts, prompting outcry from women’s sports advocates.
Video of the incident was posted to social media, showing, from a distance, one player launching a shot that hit the female player in the face. Teammates and other players can be seen reacting to the shot, which reportedly knocked out several of the female player’s teeth. The female victim can be heard screaming in train after getting hit.
The ICONS X account, representing an organization dedicated to protecting women’s sports, posted the video and tagged NCAA President and former Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker, asking him to “listen to the screams.”

Dighton-Rehoboth Regional School District superintendent Bill Runey issued a statement acknowledging that a Swampscott High School female player was seriously injured on Thursday during the game against Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School.
“Last night, a female field hockey player for the Dighton Rehoboth Regional High School girls’ field hockey team sustained significant facial and dental injuries when she was struck in the face by a shot in the third quarter versus Swampscott in an MIAA state playoff contest,” Runey said in the statement.
He also explained that the girl lost two teeth as a result of a shot by a male athlete.
“The shot was taken by a male member of the Swampscott girls field hockey team. This injury required hospitalization,” he continued. “The player, her family, teammates, and coaches remain in my prayers.”

Insanity rules.
She was “screaming in train”? Ugh.
“The organization said they “respect and understand” the safety concerns of male players playing against females, but “student safety” alone has not been a “successful defense” to change the rule.
“Student safety has not been a successful defense to excluding students of one gender from participating on teams of the opposite gender. The arguments generally fail due to the lack of correlation between injuries and mixed-gender teams,” The MIAA wrote.”
I think it is time for the boys’ football or Lacrosse team to confront the perp and beat him a lesson.
I saw that, too. There are no editors left in the United States. No capable editors, I mean.
There are photos of the female teammates of the dude, celebrating him. Women are the reason we have to deal with this nonsense. It will not stop until someone instills some sanity in modern women.
The insane left do not know the difference between a man and a woman.
He is on the team because there isn’t a male field hockey team.
When there isn’t a sport offered for both sexes, the sport is co-ed.
This is a Mass law from the 70’s.
WTF do you think is responsible for passing this?
Women who wanted to f up some boys sport.
Once again, women lack any accountability for eventual outcomes.
Some bitch wanted to kick a field goal or wrestle a boy, and this is the eventuality.
I am SO going to refrain from commenting on that.
Who edited that article? Hunter Biden?
>> It will not stop until someone instills some sanity in modern women.
Agree. Until then, it’s “Tough it out, b!tches!”
And, IMHO, from the boys at the school, a good a$$ whoopin’ is in order for the MALE field hockey player who did this.
get the boys outta girls sports and the girls outta boys sports ...
I watched the video and my comment has nothing to do with the issue at hand (male in female sports).... 1. Didn’t actually look like that hard a shot... or at least a harder shot than any of the women would have done. 2. If this is ‘hockey’, why aren’t they wearing some kind of face protector?
What a bastard this little weasel is.
"Screaming in train?!"
Is this some new idiom I'm unfamiliar with? Does anyone know what this means?

That's because, with the advent of spell check, news sources including the New York Times fired all their copy editors. Mistakes like the one in the OP regularly elude machine edits.
We are witnessing one of many examples of the forced acceptance of thier mental illness in our domestic society and the protection they receive from government and the agenda.
