So there is an allegation that the two trans swimmers colluded to let the female to male one win a race.

Penn swimmer alleges Lia Thomas colluded with fellow transgender swimmer before race

In an exclusive interview with OutKick, a biological female member of the Penn women's swimming said she believes her teammate, transgender swimmer Lia Thomas, colluded with Yale transgender swimmer Iszac Henig, who's transitioning from female to male, during a 100 freestyle race on January 8.

The swimmer, granted anonymity due to what is viewed as threats from the university, activists, and the current political climate, believes Thomas, who has reportedly been comparing herself to Jackie Robinson, and Henig cooked up a plan before a Penn home tri-meet with Yale and Dartmouth.

"Looking at [Lia's] time, I don't think she was trying," the Penn swimmer alleges. "I know they're friends and I know they were talking before the meet. I think she let her win to prove the point that, 'Oh see, a female-to-male beat me.'"

In the 100 freestyle race, Henig finished with a time of 49.57; Thomas touched the wall in 52.84. During a November tri-meet with Princeton and Cornell, Thomas swam the 100 freestyle in 49.42.
The anonymous Penn swimmer also accuses Thomas of mailing it in during the January 8 200 freestyle race that the transgender swimmer (1:48:73) won by two seconds.

"I was on deck and said to a friend, 'She's literally not trying.' You could just tell," OutKick's source said. "It was blatantly obvious. I was watching the 200 free and she was literally keeping pace with the other girls.

Nope. Liberal hoaxes usually are pretty poorly planned out.

He wasn't sandbagging. He was just having prostate cramps.

Well that sure is a kick to the nuts to the fairness narrative.......

Women can't beat men in sports unless the man let's them win?

Is that really the message they want to get out there?

Yeah, 3 seconds is huge in the 100…..that was sandbagging. You dont add 3 seconds , particularly when you tapered for this meet. What a joke.

I can't keep up on who is what.

How about not letting men (normal or trans) swim with women period? It's really not that hard.

Unfortunately, the bigger story here is that the other team members are afraid to speak their mind for fear of punishment from the University and others.

They need to find a nice way to label it so no feelings are hurt but it should be people born female that never took male hormones in one category and everyone else in the other category (men, trans women, trans men, non-binary but taking hormones, new categories yet to be invented, etc.).

Anyone else spot the fallacy in that sentence?

This. There's clearly significant cognitive dissonance at work here. This source has been faced with the very clear flaw in her belief system yet can't come to grips with the fact that "she" is in fact a "he" that's kicking everyone's ass.

Does anyone else have trouble following these type of stories with all of the mixed genders and names?

Some enterprising coach needs to use NIL to encourage five young men to play for the same women's college basketball team.

shhhh...you might be called trans-phobic or a misogynist.

Call me what you want, I don't give a ****.

Wait why would a female to male be competing against female? Do all trans get to compete against menstruators?

Slightly off topic. I don't understand why swimming can't have categories like we have in other sports. For example in American skeet we have a women's concurrent, age concurrents, etc. And of course everyone gets to compete in the open category. I can't count the number of times I've had my ass kicked in a shootoff by some kid or a woman.

If there are so many of these freaks, can't they just swim against each other?

this furthers my theory that this is all some sort of prank or sociology project.

Lia isn't even trying. in the pics i've seen not in a bathing suit this dude is doing pretty much the bare minimum to resemble a female. it's pretty far out there but i think he's trying to prove a point.

I bet they settled it with a sword fight

I really didn't understand that story.

So let me get this straight (pardon the pun):

1) A biological man pretending to be a woman is swimming against women and dominating (of course, duh)

2) a biological female pretending to be a man is still swimming against women (isn't that convenient that this person wasnt eager to swim against men)

3) the biological male in 1 let the biological female in 2 win, as some sort of cover to show that someone that thinks she's a man would beat anyone thinks they are a woman. Thus, people must conclude there is some sort of logic and fairness to a biological man competing with women

Nuts

Sadly, this isn't a bit.

Love the comparison, though. Spot on.

That dude doesn't look like a lady.

And feminists think chivalry is dead.

I would totally donate to an NIL LLC if that's how these things work to get some of those actual female swimmers to come be an Aggie if they'd agree to speak openly about why they transferred. It's what a conservative university should do.

a total surprise: someone so deeply deceptive as to think they can change their gender, and convince everyone else that such is possible, would also be partial to cheating in a sport given major consequences.
