California Track Mom Challenges AB Hernandez's 5-8 High Jump Win

Jennifer Oliver said AB Hernandez’s 5-foot-8 winning jump at Saturday’s CIF Southern Section Masters Meet denied her daughter, Nieve Oliver, the top qualifying mark in the girls’ high jump.
Oliver said her objection is about fairness and safety, not hostility toward Hernandez, arguing that biological males should not compete in girls’ sports and warning contact sports would raise even greater risks.
Hernandez qualified for next weekend’s state meet in Clovis after winning high jump, triple jump and long jump at Moorpark, putting the athlete in position to add to 2 California state titles won last year.
California’s interscholastic federation has adopted a shared-podium rule if a trans athlete wins in later state rounds, while Oliver said parents now are left hoping courts force broader policy changes.
