Trans male runs race alone in New York track meet after women runners refuse to compete against him

In the 400-meter finals, 17-year-old Anna Vidolova and 16-year-old Amaris Hiatt were marked as DNS, or did not start, and had no recorded times. Schriener, who competed as an "unattached" athlete, or an athlete with no team, finished with a time of 56.74 seconds, a personal best.

Schreiner also competed in the women’s 200-meter race, also winning first place with 14-year-old Zwange Edwards, who came in second, 16-year-old Zariah Hargrove, who came in third, 15-year-old Leah Walker and 18-year-old Ainsley Rausch, per Fox News.

Multiple athletes in the 200-meter race were marked as DNS (did not start): 18-year-old Jordan Carr, 46-year-old Amanda Taylor, Vidolova again and 16-year-old Paula Damiens.

Under USATF policy, transgender athletes are allowed to compete in the women’s division in compliance with policies laid out by the International Olympic Committee. The USATF requires, however, "that certain medical benchmarks be achieved before an athlete may compete as the opposite gender for medals, prize money and other benefits."

Schriener previously came under fire while competing for Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) after breaking numerous records in the 2023-24 indoor season. In the 2024 outdoor track season, Schriener won multiple women’s races in times that would have seen the athlete place last among the men.

In the wake of Trump signing an executive order barring biological males from competing against women in schools that receive federal funding, the NCAA banned biological males from competing against women. This resulted in Schreiner being barred from collegiate meets.

"They're not looking at my passport or my birth certificate, they're not even calling me before banning me," Schreiner said in an Instagram post. "They are hearing word that I was assigned male at birth and that is enough for them to ban any athlete they want to."

Boston College, where one meet was set to take place, wrote in an email to Schreiner that its college must comply with the executive order even if it "does not align with our previous practices." Schreiner was also recently removed from the Rochester Institute of Technology's (RIT) women's track and field roster.

In a statement to Fox News, RIT said, "We continue to follow the NCAA participation policy for transgender student-athletes following the Trump administration’s executive order. Sadie is not participating in the next meet."
