Published



EXCLUSIVE — A member of the NCAA Committee on Infractions resigned from his position over disagreements with the organization’s policy for transgender student-athletes, according to a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner. 

William Bock III, the former general counsel for the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, submitted his letter of resignation to NCAA President Charlie Baker on Friday, citing the college sports organization’s policy to allow transgender men to compete in women’s sports as a primary reason for his departure. Bock has served as a committee member since 2016 and is stepping down from his role more than a year before his current term is set to expire in August 2025.
