Virginia Tech University swimmer Reka Gyorgy is calling on fans & fellow female swimmers to boycott future competitions in response to her place in the NCAA finals being "stolen" from her by "biological male" University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas.
Gyorgy — a decorated college athlete from Hungary who competed in the 2016 Olympics — was left on the outside looking in at the NCAA championships last week.
Her 17th-place finish in the 500-yard freestyle pushed her one spot out of finals contention for the race, which controversial transgender swimmer Lia Thomas would go on to win, posting the fastest time recorded all season.
In her first year swimming for the Penn women’s team after three seasons competing against men, Thomas throttled her competition.
It was Gyorgy's last chance to compete in the race in her collegiate career & she reportedly posted one of her fastest personal times all season. But it wasn't enough.
In a tweet posted on Sunday, Gyorgy made her feelings on the matter clearly known.
"My finals spot was stolen by Lia Thomas, who is a biological male," she stated, adding, "Until we all refuse to compete nothing will change. Thanks for all the support retweets & follows I won't stop fighting."

GROVELAND TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) - A Michigan teenager accused of burning her father by throwing chemicals on him last fall is facing a homicide charge following his recent death at a hospital.
Megan Joyce Imirowicz, 18, of Groveland Township in Oakland County was charged last year with one count of assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder and one count of domestic violence.
Imirowicz was released on bond, but after her father died of his burns this month she was taken back into custody and charged with homicide, local media reported.
She is being held at the Oakland County Jail. Court records show Imirowicz faces a March 21 probable cause hearing.
State police say Imirowicz mixed a deadly concoction containing lye powder and drain cleaner and doused her father, who suffered severe burns all over his body and died in Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc on March 6.

Baby Cino, whose real name is Timothy Starks, was released from the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center Wednesday after being arrested on a gun charge.
Starks was picked up in a red Nissan — still wearing an inmate wristband — that was gunned down just minutes later. The shooter reportedly began firing at least 40 shots from another vehicle as Starks' car entered Palmetto Expressway during rush hour. The Nissan hit a wall on the ramp & Starks suffered several gunshot wounds, including one to his head. He was 20.
Dante Collins Banks, Starks' friend who picked him up from jail, was also shot in the abdomen & treated at a local hospital.
The identity of the shooter is not known.
Starks, known for his song "Big Haiti Shottas," was said to be affiliated with the "Boss Life" gang in Little Haiti.
RANDOLPH COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) — Deputies seized pounds of fentanyl after a drug investigation in North Carolina that was enough to kill 390,000 people.
According to deputies, they executed a search warrant at the home of Donald Robert Lynch on Spencer Road in Archdale. Detectives sized “a trafficking amount” of fentanyl & methamphetamine, bath salts & steroids. Six firearms & drug paraphernalia were also seized.
After the search of the Archdale home, the Chatham County Sheriff’s Office assisted in a search warrant at a business in Bennett, North Carolina believed to be operated by Lynch.
783.9 grams of Fentanyl and 367 grams of methamphetamine were found. That’s 1.7 pounds of fentanyl & almost a pound of meth.
The DEA says that as little as 2 milligrams of fentanyl can be a lethal dose. 783.9 grams is equal to 783,900 milligrams, which could become 390,000 lethal doses of Fentanyl.
Lynch was charged by Randolph County Sheriff’s Office with
**Felony possession of firearm by felon **Two counts of felony trafficking in heroin **Felony trafficking in methamphetamine **Two counts of felony possession with intent to manufacture/sell/deliver schedule II **Felony possession with intent to sell/deliver schedule VI **Misdemeanor maintaining a vehicle/dwelling/place for controlled substance **Misdemeanor simple possession schedule III **Misdemeanor possession drug paraphernalia.
He was transported to Randolph County Detention Center & given a $150,000 secured bond plus Electronic House Arrest.
Lynch was charged by Chatham County Sheriff’s Office with
**Felony trafficking in heroin **Felony possession schedule I **Felony possession with intent to manufacture/sell/deliver schedule I **Felony maintaining a vehicle/dwelling/place for controlled substance **Misdemeanor possession drug paraphernalia
COLUMBIA, S.C. (WBTW) — The South Carolina Department of Corrections (SCDC) informed Attorney General Alan Wilson Friday that executions are now able to be carried out by firing squad as required by law, according to a news release.
The law, which went into effect in May 2021, makes South Carolina’s primary method of execution the electric chair, but allows inmates to choose between firing squad or lethal injection, if available, according to the release.
The Capital Punishment Facility at Broad River Correctional Institution has been redone to have the capacity for execution by firing squad, according to the release.
At the facility, a chair has been added to the corner of the room away from the electric chair and bullet-resistant glass was installed between the death chamber and witness room. The chair faces a wall. Three firing squad members will be behind the wall with their rifles facing the inmate through an opening, according to the release. The rifles and opening are not visible from the witness room.
All three rifles will be loaded with live ammunition, according to the release. The witnesses will only see the right-side profile of the inmate. The inmate will wear a prison-issued uniform and will be able to make a last statement.
The inmate will be strapped into a chair with a hood over their head, according to the release. An aim point will be placed over the inmate’s heart and the team will fire after the warden reads the execution order.
The release states a doctor will then examine the inmate and once declared dead, a curtain will be pulled and the witnesses will be escorted out.
Firing squad members will be volunteer employees with SCDC and will have to meet certain requirements.
SCDC said the cost to make the upgrades was $53,600.
Police are investigating an incident in which a man allegedly used his own daughter as a hostage during a situation at a northwest Miami-Dade home.
Video released on Saturday showed SWAT team members eventually taking the man into custody at the home located in the 18700 block of Northwest 84th Passage.
The daughter, who was not seen in the video, was not identified and also not injured according to Miami-Dade Police.
MDPD described the scene as a "domestic related incident" and said the man barricaded himself in the home before he was taken into custody.
Police have not released the man's identity or details on the case at this time.
In a matter of weeks, COVID-19 pandemic fears in Europe have given way to another concern that nightmares are made of: the possibility that Russia could use a nuclear weapon.
Since Russia's unprovoked attack on Ukraine, U.S. and overseas manufacturers of residential bunkers say they've seen a spike in customer inquiries and orders — a surge they attribute to the war in Eastern Europe and Russian President Vladimir Putin's decision late last month to put his country's nuclear forces on alert.
Gary Lynch, general manager of Rising S Company, a residential bunker builder based in Murchison, Texas, said he recently started receiving inquiries from prospective customers in Italy, Romania, Sweden and the U.K., in addition to the U.S. and Canada.
"We've got a world superpower threatening to use nuclear weapons; that alone is enough to be scary," he told CBS MoneyWatch.
Manufacturers say the pre-fab shelters will withstand exposure to chemical, biological and nuclear attacks. Some use a steel frame strong enough to resist earthquakes and include bullet-resistant doors. The highest-end models — which can cost millions of dollars — may include air filtration systems, solar charging stations, fresh water inlets, waste removal tanks and infrared security.
Rising S makes bunkers in a local factory and ships them overseas. Over a recent 10-day period, Lynch said he got 1,600 inquiries from people interested in an underground shelter where they could take refuge in the event of a nuclear incident. That compares with the two to six calls he normally would have fielded over that same span of time from consumers looking to build a panic room or secure storage spaces for weapons or valuables.
Forty of those customer inquiries led to sales of bunkers ranging in price from $60,000 to around $200,000, including installation.
Interest in residential bunkers is coming from people across the income ladder. Mathieu Séranne, founder of Artemis Protection, a Paris-based company that sells and installs luxury, prefabricated bunkers for a variety of uses, said he's noticed a similar uptick in interest for his company's products.
Before the war, Séranne's 1-year-old company primarily worked with wealthy clients, but interest in shelters is now pouring in from people of various income levels in Finland, France, Poland, Russia, the U.S. and Canada, he told CBS MoneyWatch. That includes inquiries from entrepreneurs, a doctor, a postal worker and an Amazon worker, among others.

The U.S. State Department is demanding Russia allow its officials to see Brittney Griner ... as the WNBA star sits in a jail cell awaiting her trial for alleged drug offenses.
In a statement released to AP on Friday, the U.S. State Dept. said it's "insisting" Russia "provide consular access" to Griner -- explaining the request has been repeatedly denied over the last few weeks.
It's all quite notable, considering it's the first time the U.S. State Department has used her name publicly.
You'll recall, when State Dept. Secretary Antony Blinken was asked about her case less than two weeks ago, he declined to get into specifics, saying only, "Whenever an American is detained anywhere in the world, we of course stand ready to provide every possible assistance."
On Friday, though, officials finally acknowledged in their statement that they "are closely engaged on this case." They added they are in "frequent contact with Brittney Griner's legal team."
As we reported, Griner has been detained in Russia since mid-February, after authorities say she went through airport security with hash oil in her luggage.
Griner's legal team asked a court on Thursday to allow her to be released on house arrest ... though officials denied that request. Griner is now expected to remain in detention in Russia until at least May 19, when she's expected to return to court.
The situation with Griner in Russia has been complicated ... as the State Department has "suspended operations" at embassies in Russia near where Griner is being held following the country's invasion of Ukraine.
Our sources say Griner is in good spirits despite it all ... but wants to return back to the U.S. as soon as possible.
NORRISTOWN, Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- A Montgomery County father has been charged in the death of his 8-week-old son, officials said.
David Moyer, 24, of Trappe, is charged with third-degree murder and other related offenses in the March 3 death.
According to investigators, a 6-week-old baby was brought via Uber to Phoenixville Hospital by his parents on Feb. 22.
Hospital staff determined the baby was not breathing and performed life-saving measures to revive the infant, officials said.
The baby was then flown by medical helicopter to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, where contacted law enforcement due to the nature of the baby's injuries.
Officials said CHOP physicians noted both healing injuries on the baby and hemorrhaging in the brain. On March 3, 2022, the baby was pronounced dead at CHOP.
An autopsy performed by a forensic pathologist with the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office opined the cause of death was multiple blunt impact injuries, and the manner of death was homicide.
An investigation found that the baby was in the care of Moyer immediately before the infant was brought to the hospital. The investigation determined that the baby had reportedly vomited on the defendant, who put him forcibly down on the bed, face first and was left there for 20 minutes. When Moyer returned, the baby was not breathing and was unresponsive. The parents waited 20 minutes for an Uber to arrive to take the baby to the emergency room, officials said.
Moyer was arrested and charged with Third-Degree Murder, Endangering the Welfare of a Child and Recklessly Endangering Another Person. He is being held on a $1 million cash bail.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for 10 a.m. on March 29.
Young Thug's family is suffering through an unimaginable loss, as the mother of one of his children was shot and killed after a fight at a bowling alley.
Law enforcement sources tell us the Atlanta Police Department responded to Metro Fun Center Thursday night on a report a woman had been shot. We're told when they arrived, they found LaKevia Jackson dead -- having suffered multiple gunshot wounds.
Cops say they've learned Jackson was involved in some sort of a dispute inside the venue over a bowling ball which eventually escalated to gunfire.
A local reporter spoke to Jackson's mom who said LaKevia was at the bowling alley to celebrate a friend's birthday ... and that the alleged shooter waited in the parking lot for about 20 minutes for her to leave.
Young Thug and Lakevia have at least one child together ... the rapper has 6 children.
