Kentucky Swimmer Riley Gaines CALLS OUT Lia Thomas and NCAA
From the first-ever Independent Council for Women’s Sports conference in Las Vegas, which included sports legends such as Martina Navratilova, Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines who tied Lia Thomas at the NCAA DI national championships tells me on the latest episode of Breakaway, the backstory of how the NCAA silenced her including how they awarded Lia the trophy and told her they’d ship her actual trophy to her house.
Riley Gaines, now Riley Barker after recently getting hitched (congrats!), responds to last month’s FINA ruling that bans transgender athletes and how everyone can fight for fairness and equality in women’s sports.
