Trans athlete at center of Supreme Court Title IX case wins girls' track and field state championship

Transgender athlete Becky Pepper-Jackson won a girls' state championship in West Virginia this week, before the U.S. Supreme Court could make a ruling on whether the state can ban Pepper-Jackson from competing against females.

Pepper-Jackson took first place for Bridgeport High School in the Class AAA state title with a personal best of 38 feet, 11.75 inches. The second-place winner, Paislee Babiczuk, of John Marshall, finished more than two feet shorter, only managing 36 feet 11 inches.
