A male-to-female (MTF) transgender athlete who clinched three victories in the women's track and field events for an intercollegiate athletic conference in New York would have finished at the bottom of the rankings in the men's division if he competed based on his biological sex.
Sadie Schreiner of the Rochester Institute of Technology was representing the university as part of its outdoor track and field team in the Liberty League, a New York-based Division III intercollegiate athletic conference.
Schreiner clinched victories in the 400-meter dash with 55.07 seconds and the 200-meter dash with a remarkable 24.14 seconds at the Liberty League championship meet on May 5. Schreiner's 200-meter time also set a new school record and a Liberty League conference women’s record, surpassing his previous personal best of 24.50 seconds earlier in the season.

Adding to the accolades, Schreiner served as the anchor leg of the winning 4 x 400 meters relay team, propelling them to victory with an impressive finish. Despite starting in fourth place when receiving the baton, Schreiner's lightning-fast anchor leg clocked at 54.91 seconds and secured a commanding lead for the team, clinching the win by nearly three seconds.
However, statistical analysis from his own records reveals that Schreiner's performances would have placed him at the bottom of the rankings in the men's divisions.
For instance, his 100-meter time of 11.72 seconds ranked him 20th among male athletes when he competed as a boy at Hillsborough High School but would have positioned him as the leader in the girl's category. Similarly, his present recorded times at the Liberty League championship meet would have left him in the last position among male competitors.

Several studies prove that MTFs possess an "automatic advantage" in women's sports
In a recent Instagram post, Schreiner addressed the criticisms labeling him a "cheater." He also argued that he does not possess an "automatic advantage" as a transgender athlete.
"Out of all the hate that’s been shared of me, 'cheater' is the most common word used… In my eyes, the discussion of trans inclusion in athletics shouldn’t even be a debate," Schreiner wrote on Instagram. "As more research is done the more evident this becomes. There's a reason I'm only as fast as I was in middle school, and the only variable that's changed over my nine years of running is my medication."
"Even as Olympic studies prove the disadvantages of trans athletes, it's not enough," he claimed. "Policies are being changed before research is done, and the only way to stay educated in this process is to talk to the few trans athletes that are competing and hear their stories, bring them into the conversation. The only way to make an educated decision on a small handful of athletes is to hear their voice, not speak for them."
However, several studies oppose his claims.
For instance, a study conducted by Emma N. Hilton and Tommy R. Lundberg and published in Sports Medicine concluded that despite testosterone suppression following current sporting guidelines for transgender athletes, the biological advantages in terms of muscle mass and strength gained during male puberty are only marginally diminished for most transgender women. The study suggests that transgender women may retain a 10 to 50 percent advantage over cisgender women in sports, irrespective of testosterone levels.
Similarly, research by Timothy A. Roberts, Joshua Smalley and Dale Ahrendt, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, reveals that even after transitioning, individuals who were assigned male at birth maintain some physical advantages over cisgender women.
Furthermore, another study underscores that transgender women exhibit greater muscle strength, size and composition compared to cisgender women for at least a year following gender-affirming treatment.
