Female athletes sue NCAA, allege "serial" Title IX violations
A new lawsuit is taking aim at the NCAA's policies on transgender athletes. More than a dozen current and former athletes filed the suit, accusing the association of violating their rights under Title IX by allowing a transgender woman to compete in a swimming competition. At the national championships in 2022, Lia Thomas won the Women's 500-Yard Freestyle Event competing for the University of Pennsylvania. Thomas was the first openly transgender athlete to win a Division 1 Title in any sport.

KTVU's Alex Savidge discusses the lawsuit and allegations with Shaun Fletcher, Professor of Public Relations and Sports Communication at San Jose State University.
