(The Center Square) – A Puyallup high school wrestler who said she was sexually assaulted by a male who identifies as female during a match last December is asking a federal judge to step in.
Kallie Keeler, who now is 16, along with her mother are suing the school district, as well as state education officials and the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association claiming the policies that allow transgender athletes to compete in girls and women’s sports violate Title IX.
The Rogers High School student reported the alleged assault to school officials and her coach two days after the Dec. 6, 2025 incident, but the family contends administration failed to take meaningful action to protect and investigate her claim of sexual assault.
She was wrestling against a transgender wrestler, and Keeler did not know the wrestler was a male who identifies as female at the time of the match.
