The No. 2-seeded Rebels shut out No. 4 Bloomington Jefferson, 6–0, in the Class AAAA Minnesota high school girls’ softball championship game Friday morning at Jane Sage Cowles Stadium on the campus of the University of Minnesota. Once again, it was junior pitcher Marissa Rothenberger, a trans-identifying male athlete, who took the mound for Champlin Park — and never gave it up. Rothenberger threw a complete-game shutout, allowing just three hits and striking out six to secure the...

Newly leaked test results prove that Olympic boxer Imane Khelif does have male chromosomes — after the International Olympic Committee dismissed the claims as “not legitimate” and let her compete in the Paris 2024 Games. Khelif – a 26-year-old who has long maintained she is female — was found to have male XY chromosomes in a 2023 test carried out by an accredited Indian doctor, newly obtained test results leaked by 3 Wire Sports show. “Chromosome analysis reveals male karyotype,” read the test results — referring to male chromosomes – which left Khelif barred from the 2023 women’s World Boxing...

A 16-year-old transgender athlete who is the focus of a US sports row has won two golds and a silver at the California high school track and field championship. AB Hernandez was born a boy but has transitioned and now competes against girls. And the teenager's inclusion in the girls category in the high jump, long jump and triple jump became a national conversation. Critics, including parents, conservative activists and President Trump, had called for Hernandez to be barred from competing. In the city of Clovis on Saturday, she took part under a new rule change brought in by the...

The President of the United States spent his Tuesday morning publicly harassing a 16-year-old high school junior. Her only crime? The talented student athlete won two California Interscholastic Federation titles in the girls’ long jump and triple jump at the Southern Section finals held Saturday and is now entitled to compete in the state finals in Clovis, May 30-31.

THIS is the way. Congrats to Reese Hogan, the REAL champ!!! Congratulations to Reese Hogan, the real champion in yesterday's triple jump at CIF Southern Section Finals.👏🏼 She set a new PR and school record.

Just a dude who wants to show the world how he's faster, stronger, and better than the girls.

A young female rugby player who was left screaming in agony after a transgender rival tore apart her knee ligaments has accused sporting chiefs of letting her down. Elena King, 20, suffered a torn ACL and MCL in January in the Netherlands after her biologically male opponent popped her left knee out of its socket with a rash challenge. Now facing lifelong pain and six months of physiotherapy just to run again, she is asking why the Dutch Rugby Association allows transgender athletes to compete against women.

OPINION: What are the chances? That thing that “never happens” happened yet again last week: A biological male competing against females won first place in two track events. It happened in (surprise!) Maine, which so far has held firm against President Trump’s executive order banning biological men from competing against women in interscholastic athletics. In what appears to have been a tri-meet, North Yarmouth Academy junior Soren Stark-Chessa won the girls 800 meter and 1600 meter (mile) runs, the latter by almost 20 seconds. As noted by Outkick, the 800 event was a closer race with Yarmouth High’s Lilah Connor...

Reduxx has learned that a trans-identified male high school student has been quietly participating in girls sports, earning accolades intended for young female athletes. Charlie Rothenberger, who now goes by “Marissa,” was transitioned by his parents at an extremely early age and is now drawing ire from his female teammates as more are becoming aware that he is biologically male. Rothenberger is a 17-year-old student at Champlin Park High School in Champlin, Minnesota. He currently plays as a starting pitcher for his girl’s high school fastpitch team, where he has been credited with helping the school dominate softball competitions. Earlier...

Meet "Marissa" Rothenberger, a 6-foot-tall MALE pitcher pretending to be a FEMALE, who has been dominating Girls' High School softball in Brooklyn Park, MN. Girls only hit 12% of his pitches, and he only allowed a SINGLE hit in a recent game. Even the announcers acknowledge his physical advantage, despite also pretending he is a girl. Rothenberger is a CHEATER. Keep men out of women's sports!

A trans-identified male quietly dominated his age category at a national swimming championship held in Texas over the weekend, prompting concern from women’s rights groups. Ana Caldas, formerly known as Hugo Caldas and Hannah Caldas, took home multiple titles at the event.

This is what the endgame of trans ideology looks like: an all-male final of a women’s pool championship. Last night, the UK’s Ultimate Pool Women’s Pro Series Event 2 in Wigan had its final match. This women’s pool event wouldn’t ordinarily have grabbed the headlines, except for one curious detail: this year, there were no women in the final. It was played between two transgender-identified men – Harriet Haynes and Lucy Smith. They had defeated four female opponents each before making it to the final, which Haynes ultimately won. Broadcaster Piers Morgan took to X to call the incident ‘preposterous’...

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation into USA Fencing over the disqualification of a female participant who refused to compete against a transgender opponent. The incident went down on March 30 at a USA Fencing-sanctioned regional tournament in Maryland, but Paxton has nonetheless issued a ‘Civil Investigative Demand’ over potential violations to Texas law. As Paxton described in his statement, Stephanie Turner was disqualified by USA Fencing for ‘bravely taking a knee instead of competing against a biological male.’ Turner was set to face Redmond Sullivan, who is reportedly transgender. The investigation will uncover documents related to...

“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Psalm 9:17 What is it that people do not hear, or what is it that the people do not see (Jeremiah 5:21)? The Lord clearly said, “And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.” In vs. 43 The Lord warned that “The...

There’s some very encouraging news about those who have been pushing homosexuality and gender confusion to our children and on our culture. When you first look at a couple of recent news items, you might think these activists are stronger than ever, but consider the rest of the story. We can all cheer over the fabulous executive orders from Trump on gender ideology and DEI, and the ripple effects are being felt far and wide. Yet we know this isn’t going to stop the most committed troublemakers. So let’s look at what’s playing out and why it’s important.

This happened last weekend at the University of Maryland. A female fencer named Stephanie Turner chose not to compete against a trans woman named Redmond Sullivan at an event called the Cherry Blossom Open. As the match began, Turner took a knee and removed her mask. For this she was given a "black card" and ejected from the competition. Here's the video. 🤺🚨Historic Protest: Female Fencer Takes a Knee in Bout Against Male Opponent, Faces Immediate DisqualificationAfter receiving a black card for refusing to compete against a man, Redmond Sullivan's female opponent was expelled from the @USAFencing event at the...

A recent incident at a USA Fencing tournament has sparked outrage after a female fencer was disqualified for taking a knee in protest of competing against a transgender athlete. The incident, which took place at the University of Maryland on March 30 during the USA Fencing-sanctioned regional tournament “The Cherry Blossom – D1A/VET ROC,” was captured in a viral video posted by the Independent Council on Women’s Sports, or ICONS. In the video, fencer Stephanie Turner can be seen taking a knee instead of competing against Redmond Sullivan, a transgender athlete who switched from the men’s fencing team to the...
