Boy Wins High School Girls’ Pole Vault Competition in Maine After State Pledged to Flout Trump Order

A transgender-identifying boy snagged first place in a Maine high school girls’ pole vaulting competition on Monday, just days after the state’s governing body for school sports rejected President Donald Trump’s executive order barring males from playing on female sports teams.

Alleigh Marré, executive director of American Parents Coalition, also released a statement slamming the MPA’s actions.

“Parents across Maine—and the country—are fed up with being ignored while their daughters are forced to compete against biological males. The Maine Principals’ Association’s decision isn’t just unfair; it’s an affront to every parent who expects their child to have a level playing field and is at odds with President Trump’s Executive Order protecting girls’ sports,” Marré said. “Schools should be working alongside the Administration and supporting parents, not prioritizing politics. The American Parents Coalition applauds Rep. Laurel Libby for standing up for female athletes and bringing attention to this issue.”
