In the suit, the trio argues that the state’s “discriminatory” policy allowing transgender students to compete in girls’ sports has deprived them of various opportunities and championship titles. Transgender students competing against students born with female genitalia have “inherent and biologically dictated differences” that give them a leg up on the competition, as “male athletes consistently achieve records 10-20 percent higher than comparably fit and trained women across almost all athletic events,” the suit argues.
