California high schoolers stepped away from their volleyball team to file a lawsuit over the state's transgender athlete policies after spending the previous three years sharing a locker room with a biological male.
California high school senior Hadeel Hazameh believes she was brainwashed.

"I wish they would just understand there's some things I just can not do because of my religious faith… there's stuff I just can't do and I wish I had more privacy protecting those rights."
