“Not the race that I was looking for this week, my points almost fell on the turn and with a bad start, my time was not almost what I wanted,” wrote the Rit Runner in an Instagram post.
“The good news is that the season has just started, and I’m going to leave everything on the track at Nationals,” added Schreiner with an emoji from the flag of transgender pride.
Schreiner is one of the rare transgender female athletes of the NCAA who compete with biological women despite the organization of the organization to tighten the question.

Schreiner is a defender of trans-inclusion in female sports and complained last month of the lack of support from the schools of the NCAA transfer portal.
“Trying to transfer to D1 clearly said that people are too afraid to support me,” said Schreiner on Instagram. “I was aimed at transferring in order not only to improve my athletic capacity in a more competitive environment, but also to help with the funds I needed to finish my diploma.

“It will probably be impossible to do so, but if (it’s) in D3 or elsewhere, I will participate this year.”
Schreiner is still laughing and still wins apparently.
Last season, Schreiner won the American honors on the open air track. The native of New Jersey finished third in 200 meters and eighth races of 400 meters at the NCAA outdoor championships.
Schreiner won the 200 -meter race at the Atlantic region’s indoor championships and finished ninth in the indoor championships in NCAA Division III.
