Video shows AB Hernandez, a transgender athlete, warming up to compete in the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) State Track and Field championships this weekend.
Hernadez's participation has drawn harsh criticism this week from those against trans athletes competing in girls and women's sports, including from Fresno County and Clovis city leaders.
Hernandez's mother issued a statement Friday afternoon calling those people out, saying, "my heart breaks every time I see my child being attacked, not for a wrongdoing, but simply for being who they are."
