Trans Athlete Sues Princeton University After Being Banned From Track Meet

MERCER COUNTY, NEW JERSEY, JUL 17 – Sadie Schreiner alleges Princeton violated New Jersey's anti-discrimination law by removing her from a women's track race despite qualifying to compete, according to her lawsuit filed July 14.

  • Transgender sprinter Sadie Schreiner sued Princeton University on July 14 for removing her from the 200-meter race minutes before the event at the Larry Ellis Invitational in May.
  • The lawsuit alleges that Princeton officials John Mack and Kimberly Keenan-Kirkpatrick violated New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination by barring Schreiner due to her transgender status.
  • Schreiner, who earned two All-American titles while competing for Rochester Institute of Technology, submitted official identification confirming her female gender and volunteered for physical assessments but was nevertheless barred from participation due to NCAA and Trump administration policies.
  • The complaint portrays Schreiner's removal as a deeply degrading experience that took place in the presence of her family, arguing that the defendants' conduct was unacceptable and requesting unspecified compensation.
  • This case reflects wider national conflicts following executive orders and NCAA bans on trans women athletes, amid ongoing debates about fairness and transgender rights in sports.
