REPORT: Trans Wrestler Accused of Assaulting Female Wrestler Leaves Tournament
A transgender-identifying wrestler who has been accused of assaulting a female wrestler in December allegedly dropped out of a state tournament, according to a report.
“BREAKING: The biological boy accused of assaulting wrestler Kallie Keeler has just been REMOVED from the bracket for the state tournament,” Brandi Kruse wrote in a post on X. “Unclear who made the call. He was replaced by the 8th-place finisher from the qualifying tournament, an actual girl. HUGE VICTORY!”

Breitbart News reported on Friday that the Department of Education started an investigation after 16-year-old Kallie Keeler, who attends Rogers High School, located in Puyallup, Washington, claimed a biological boy allegedly “tried to push his fingers into her vagina” during a match:
Kallie Keeler, 16, a sophomore wrestler at Rogers High School in Puyallup, Washington, claims that she was assaulted during a December 6 girls wrestling match against Emerald Ridge High School when her opponent — a teen boy who identifies as a girl — tried to push his fingers into her vagina during competition.
“I was just kind of like, what? What the heck?” a shocked Keeler exclaimed. “I didn’t really know what to do or how to handle that situation. I just wanted the match to be over.”
ED launched an investigation into a Washington State school district after a female wrestler was allegedly sexually assaulted during a match against a male competitor, and the district failed to respond to her reports.
The Trump Administration will not tolerate this conduct.
