CA Transgender HS Basketball Player Nearly Outscores Entire Girls' Team

A transgender (biological male) high school basketball player in California, who competes for San Francisco Waldorf, nearly outscored the entire opposing girls' team on Tuesday night by scoring 29 points in a 59-33 win over Jewish Community High School. 

A video posted to social media shows the player, Henry Hanlon, dominating the girls on the floor and towering over opponents and teammates, alike. 

This is not the first game that Hanlon has completely dominated this season. In fact, Hanlon is the team's leading scorer by almost 100 points over the next closest teammate. 

Hanlon averages 21.4 points per game, after averaging over 17 points per game last year in girls' basketball, according to MaxPreps. 

The senior, who identifies as a girl despite being male, has scored 150 of the team's 317 total points this season – and that's despite not playing in one of the team's eight games. 

Hanlon is a three-sport athlete who plays basketball, volleyball and soccer.
