A male cross-country runner from a Maine high school competed against girls and was accused of cheating after he placed fifth, despite being ranked lower than 170th in his district when racing against boys.

Soren Stark-Chessa from Maine Coast Waldorf School, a private school in Freeport, Maine, was reportedly ranked 172nd as a freshman boy, according to the Daily Mail.

As a ophomore, Stark-Chessa began racing against girls after allegedly transitioning genders. The athlete is now reportedly ranked fourth in the female rankings and recently finished fifth at the Maine XC Festival of Champions. The boy finished with a race time of 18:11.35, bumping a young girl named Abby out of a top-five finish.

If still racing against boys, this time would have placed Stark-Chessa 143rd.
