dtgreene: Well, in Texas, for the second year in a row a boy won the girl's wrestling state championship.
Sometimes, a combination of policies (one of which was misguided here) can produce results that no-one wants.
paladin181: Honestly, I'd have figured he'd have been disqualified for using PEDs, which is technically true in this case. Otherwise, all the girl will be taking testosterone..
If it would be illegal at the top tier, it should be illegal at the high school level too.
The rules allow for PEDs, provided that they are taken under the supervision of a doctor for valid medical reasons; hence, taking testosterone prescribed by a doctor does not disqualify him.
On the other hand, the policy requires athletes to compete as the gender listed on their birth certificate, hence requiring him to compete as a girl.
Incidentally, Olympic rules would have him competing as a boy, which makes a lot more sense and would be what he would prefer. (According to articles on this situation, he would prefer wrestling with the other boys anyway; it's just the stupid policy of the Texas school league that has him wrestling girls.)
