What We Know About the Conflict Over a Trans Athlete in a California Track Meet
A transgender girl in California qualified for this week's state high school track and field meet, and her inclusion in the two-day event has angered people who do not believe that trans girls should compete in girls' events. They believe that trans girls hold a physical advantage and say that allowing them to take part is unfair. Her participation has fueled a political debate that has reached the White House: President Trump has threatened to pull federal funding from the state if it lets the trans girl, AB Hernandez, compete at the meet. Civil rights advocates have denounced the threat as bullying behavior. Now the eyes of the president, the governor, conservative activists and transgender rights groups will be on the meet, which began Friday in Clovis, near Fresno. It's arguably the most competitive high school track and field meet in the nation. Here's what to know: What events is the trans girl competing in? Hernandez qualified for the meet in three events: the high jump, the long jump and the triple jump. On Friday, she finished as the top qualifier in all three events and advanced to Saturday's finals. There, medals typically go to the top nine athletes. She is one of the favorites in the long jump and the triple jump. What is the gist of the debate? People who are against trans girls' competing in girls' events believe that those athletes hold unfair advantages over other competitors. Athletes who were born male, they say, have a physiological edge — including muscle mass and bone length — that they retain even after their transition. They think that physical edge makes it harder for all girls to have an equal chance at making teams, qualifying for meets and winning. In California, trans girls have had the right to compete in girls' events since 2013, when a law was passed that said students could participate in school sports in the category that matched their gender identity.

Malia Obama's bold Nike debut honors HBCU culture
When Malia Obama stepped behind the camera to direct her first commercial, she didn't just make art—she made history. The Nike spot, launching A'ja Wilson's signature 'A'One' sneaker on May 6, did more than promote a shoe; it's a cinematic love letter to Black excellence, athletic greatness, and the undeniable rhythm of HBCU culture. For HBCU sports fans, this moment hits different. Advertisement Obama's direction centers Wilson's roots in Columbia, South Carolina, and her deep ties to Benedict College—where her father, Roscoe Wilson, was once a standout player. The commercial's heart-pounding choreography, performed by Benedict College dancers, mirrors the precision and pride seen every fall on HBCU football sidelines. It's a nod to the halftime shows, the battle of the bands, the sweat and swagger of Black college sports that too often go unseen by mainstream media. 'When you think about HBCUs, you think about tradition, you think about family,' Wilson said. 'That's what raised me.' Wilson, now a two-time WNBA MVP and Olympic gold medalist, continues to shine a spotlight on the communities that molded her. And thanks to Malia's storytelling, that spotlight now beams globally. The 'A'One' isn't just a shoe—it's the first Nike signature sneaker for a Black woman athlete in over a decade. The campaign itself breaks barriers, and with Obama at the helm, it speaks to a new generation of fans who want to see authenticity in sports marketing. Advertisement For HBCU alumni and athletes, this commercial is more than representation—it's validation. Let this be the start, not the exception. Demand more stories rooted in HBCU greatness. Because when the culture leads, the world watches. Related: Charlotte's bold power play to bring CIAA Tournament home Related: Shaquille O'Neal sends strong message by showing HBCU pride on TNT
