Selina, Alanna, and Chelsea are not the only girls in Connecticut that have been impacted by this CIAC policy. In fact, two male athletes in Connecticut have taken 15 state championship titles that previously belonged to nine different girls. And they have taken 17 individual meet records that previously belonged to 13 different girls.

"The answer should be common sense. That’s why Title IX was created, after all—to provide women and girls with equal educational and athletic opportunities. But those opportunities are being stripped from these high school athletes. And now they are speaking out.
"You see, in 2017, they started facing a different kind of competition. That’s the year that the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference (CIAC) first allowed male athletes who identify as female to compete as girls.
"That’s why these three girls are taking a stand. Last year, they filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education. And while the Department of Education agreed to investigate this CIAC policy, these female athletes are taking extra steps to ensure that the athletic opportunities of women and girls are preserved.
"With the help of Alliance Defending Freedom, they filed a lawsuit against the CIAC in February. Since then, many have voiced their support for these three high school athletes. In fact, on March 24, the Attorney General of the United States and the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice filed a brief in that lawsuit supporting these girls.
"Let me introduce you to these brave high school girls—who have been personally harmed by being forced to compete against male athletes." . . . (Emphasis in the original)
