Thomas became a household name by pouring gasoline on the fiery debate about men competing in women’s sports.
Before deciding to compete against girls, Thomas was 65th on the men’s team in the 500-yard freestyle and 554th in the 200-yard freestyle.
Penn’s Lia Thomas won the 500-yard freestyle at the NCAA women’s swimming and diving championships.
