California HS girls' volleyball team with trans athlete sees 8th forfeit amid growing controversy
Fox News ^ | Sep 24, 2025 | Jackson Thompson

At least eight high school volleyball teams in California have forfeited to a team with a well-known transgender athlete.

The Jurupa Unified School District (JUSD) confirmed that Patriot High School has forfeited its Sept. 26 match to Jurupa Valley High School, which rosters transgender athlete AB Hernandez. Both Patriot and Jurupa Valley are within the same school district, the Jurupa Unified School District (JUSD).

"We can confirm the Patriot High School volleyball team will forfeit their September 26 match," JUSD said in a statement to Fox News Digital.......

The two current teammates in the lawsuit, seniors Alyssa McPherson and Hadeel Hazameh, previously told Fox News Digital they were stepping away from the team as long as the transgender athlete is participating. The third plaintiff is McPherson's older sister Madison, who graduated last year.

"Plaintiffs have been intimidated by an intentionally hostile environment created by Defendants wherein they were bullied by school officials to censor their objections to competing with, and against, a male and to sharing intimate and private spaces with a male," the lawsuit reads......

"School districts do not write laws for the state of California, nor do they have the power to ignore them or change them. However, as primarily state-funded agencies, they are required to follow them......

California Gov. Gavin Newsom's office provided a statement to Fox News Digital in response to the complaints by athletes and parents, suggesting the responsibility falls on the CIF, CDE and state legislature, but not on him.

"CIF is an independent nonprofit that governs high school sports. The California Department of Education is a separate constitutional office. Neither is under the Governor’s authority," the statement read.

Dems are realizing that males in female spaces is a losing issue with normal people and are scrambling to deflect blame while at the same time trying not to upset their gay base.

Good....I’ve been saying all along the only way to put a stop to this is to refuse to compete when a male is involved in female sports.

-

And the only thing controversial is any school system that would allow it.

“...deflect blame while at the same time trying not to upset their gay base.”

The base won’t allow that. You would think that trans would realize it’s damaging the Democrats and say, “We’ll let you deemphasize us to stay in power. Then you’ll keep secretly supporting our movement.” Nope! They’re crazy and will gladly steer the Democratic car off the metaphorical cliff so they can continue to get their way until they die.

I heard that recently a woman drove her boyfriend into a wall at 140 MPH because he said he wanted to break up with her. Killed him. She survived. The psychology is the same...Crazy.

Dancing with the devil.

It only takes a moment to start.

But it's worth your life to stop...

“...refuse to compete when a male is involved in female sports.”

Right, but “mentally ill” should be put in front of “male” to win the narrative.

The players and coaches wanted to win... at all costs.
They are winning by forfeit.
Why is this an issue?
Just give them the ‘State Champs’ trophy now and be done with it.

These “men” are typically sub-par athletes who couldn’t compete with real men. So they claim trans to beat up on women. They are scum IMHO.

Have all the respect for true female athletes. These scum? No respect.

So very true.

History is replete with significant events that would have been simple to avoid at the start but once allowed to grow and take root became difficult or almost impossible to undo.

ie: Hitler, Obama, Commies in our government, WOKEness, open borders, the muslim invasion.....

Jurupa Unified School District is well on it’s way to become the first CA State Champs with a perfect 0-0 record. Not.

The Ls and Gs are stupid ... they thought they could restrict their "movement" to just their own perversions. They were wrong. Perversion just begets even greater perversion.

Players want to play so i’m guessing his other team members aren’t happy either. Plus if they are really good players they aren’t able to prove it for colleges that might have signed them.

I remain confident that ten years from now society will look back at this time and see it as a period of insanity.

It’s good that so many school teams are realizing they CAN fight back, despite state ‘laws’ and ‘rules’. Inertia has been overcome.

Saying ‘No’ is not a crime - it’s the start of change.

The Dem in the VA Governors race is literally running from the issue.
