Teen trans athlete AB Hernandez speaks out on experience at track and field championships

AB Hernandez has been competing in track and field and volleyball at Jurupa Valley High School in Riverside County since her freshman year, but it wasn't until this year, her junior year, people began protesting her participation because she's transgender. The 16-year-old athlete became the center of attention at last week's California Track and Field Championships in Clovis. Controversy over Hernandez's participation in girls' sports included rule changes, federal investigations and online threats to the state of California by President Donald Trump. In an interview with KCRA 3's Sarah McGrew, Hernandez said she just laughs off the hate.
