Parents of University of Pennsylvania women swimmers are demanding the NCAA change rules that have permitted Lia Thomas, a transgender athlete, to dominate competition as a member of their team this season, declaring "the integrity of women's sports" is at state, DailyMail.com has learned.

The parents of about 10 swimmers sent the letter to the NCAA on Dec. 5, and forwarded it to the Ivy League and University of Pennsylvania officials.
