Former ESPN employee Sam Ponder is witnessing one of her strongest oppositions come to life before her own eyes.
Ponder said last month that it is "ridiculous" to have transgender athletes compete against biological women and girls in sports.
On Monday, Ponder took to social media, explaining that her middle school daughter was "guarding an obviously naturally born boy in a girls (basketball) tournament."

"It’s happened many times now living in NYC… The parents cheer while the boy is physical and dominant against the girls. The all-girls team loses," Ponder posted on X.
"We’ve taught our kids to never make fun of the kid… to always be kind and loving. That the parents are the problem. That no kid is born in the wrong body. But if I’m honest, watching my daughter get posted up by a boy whose parents have deceived him in this way is maddening."
Neither the city of New York nor the state has regulations regarding trans athletes, but there is currently a legal battle in Long Island's Nassau County.
Ponder responded to numerous X users, saying that the "boy" in question was not at fault but rather the parents.
