A female California high school athlete who had her glory stolen from her by a boy dressing up as a girl made sure to let the world know who deserved the glory.
As Fox News reported, 16-year-old Reese Hogan, a star track athlete from Crean Lutheran High School in Irvine, was competing in Division 3 of the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Southern Section Finals. During the event, she set a personal record and shattered her school’s record in the triple jump at 37 feet, 2 inches during Saturday’s meet.
In an honest competition, this would have been enough to place first. Unfortunately, Hogan’s loss to a boy named AB Hernandez from Jurupa Valley High School by a whopping four feet.
Here is Hogan standing on the second-place podium with a medal around her neck beside a smirking Hernandez with the third-place finisher on the right.
But after the two other podium finishers left, Hogan took a bold and incredible stand against this travesty of justice. As one will see in the video below, former NCAA swimming star and current women’s rights activist Riley Gaines posted a short video of a smiling Hogan stepping over from the second-place podium to the top spot.
The crowd erupted in cheers after seeing Hogan assume her rightful place on the throne.

As TGP readers know, President Donald Trump signed a landmark executive order back in February, which was supposed to ensure that biological men could not compete in women’s sports. But California and other blue states have decided to defy Trump’s order and continue to allow men to compete against women.
The CIF is now under a Title IX investigation for its flagrant mockery.
Angered by California’s decision to defy federal law, Hogan revealed to Fox News last week that she and other girls’ athletes wore”Protect Girls’ Sports” T-shirts before their meet at the CIF Southern Section Prelims. Worse, Reese and the other girls likely would have been disqualified had they not obeyed the Orwellian order.
“It wasn’t said, but it was implied that if I didn’t take my shirt off then and there, then something could potentially happen to my spot, it wasn’t said, but it was implied,” Hogan explained to Fox News. “Throughout the day it was kind of getting a little bit more stricter… getting a little bit more hostile with their voices.
“They never said anything about getting disqualified, but it was kind of implied by the tone of their voice and the way that they said things.”
