Riley Gaines has been a competitive swimmer since the age of 8, regularly spending between two and five hours a day training. Her dedication and commitment to competitive swimming earned her a scholarship at the University of Kentucky. This year, she found herself competing against Lia Thomas, a biological male transgender athlete who dominated women’s swimming in 2022 by shattering previous records and by winning the women’s 500-meter freestyle NCAA National Championship.
In this interview, Gaines recounts her experience racing against Thomas and the dejection she endured when NCAA officials chose Thomas to hold the fifth-place trophy instead of Riley after the two tied in the 200-meter freestyle championship event.
Gaines also tells us about her experiences so far as an advocate for women’s sports at a time when the Biden administration is pushing to amend Title IX protections to ensure transgender athletes can compete in women’s sporting events and use women’s locker rooms.
