The NCAA finally forces itself to protect female athletes

The NCAA doesn’t make many decisions for itself much anymore. That thankfully means that the organization is finally willing to protect women’s sports now that it has been told to do so.

President Donald Trump’s executive order banning men from women’s sports has been fully embraced by the NCAA. The organization has changed its rules to prevent transgender women, biological males who identify as female, from participating in women’s sports, going back on its previous hodgepodge of rules that allowed each sport to set its own standards for female athletes.
