Girls' track and field athletes did not stand on the medal podium alongside a transgender athlete for high jump at the Oregon state championship on Saturday night due to a technicality in the event's eligibility rules. The incident occurred during the state championship meet, where the transgender athlete was competing against other female athletes. Footage of the event obtained by Fox News shows the two girls' track and field athletes standing on either side of the podium, with the transgender athlete not joining them. The move sparked debate over whether the transgender athlete should have been allowed to stand on the podium alongside her competitors.
