A male athlete took first place in a high school high jump competition for girls last week, just a few days after the Department of Education launched a federal investigation into the school district.
Zachary Rose, who now goes by “Lia” (or sometimes “Liaa”), is a student from Ida B. Wells high school in Portland, Oregon. Last Wednesday, Rose won the girls’ varsity high jump at the Portland Interscholastic League Varsity Relays. Rose beat the second-place finishers by two inches with a height of 4 feet and 8 inches, a personal record. The second-place height was achieved by three different girls, two of whom were from Rose’s high school.
What makes the scenario more appalling is the fact that Rose, while competing against boys in the junior varsity category in 2023, finished in last place in a competition of 11 boys.
Rose’s jump in the boys’ competition was 4 feet and 6 inches; that same score would have won the girls’ competition last week had Rose not competed. It is also interesting to point out that the shortest jump in the boys’ JV competition equates to the highest jump in the girls’ varsity competition, showcasing the stark advantage that the male has against females.
I’m surprised he didn’t want to change in the girls locker room. It’s that big of a joke what they are doing. I think some of these guys are making Animal House stories for later.
