In a speech at the San Francisco Pride Summit on Thursday, Nereyda Hernandez took strong exception to the recent California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) decision to give first-place honors to the female athletes who finished behind her son.

“Of course I’m going to be upset,” Hernandez said. “AB put in all the work, all the hours after school, and she got put aside. It was heartbreaking. I knew it hurt her, because she’s physically there, but she’s kind of invisible.”
