For quite some time now, Riley Gaines has been the only female NCAA swimmer (see correction below: competing for Kentucky) who was willing to speak out about the unfairness of allowing male swimmer Lia Thomas to compete against the actual women in the pool. When I recently watched Matt Walsh’s amazing documentary, “What is a Woman”, I noticed that there was another swimmer from the team being interviewed. The swimmer wasn’t identified and was only shown in silhouette. But she didn’t sound like Gaines, and I was curious who she might be. Now she has come forward to tell her story and her name is Paula Scanlan. Her story is similar to that of Gaines, but she offers new details into how the university’s athletic department threatened and silenced all of the students to keep them from airing their protests over Thomas to the press.
