Sean Lechner filed a Title IX complaint on Dec. 5, 2025 with the U.S. Department of Education, the Michigan Department of Education, the Michigan High School Athletic Association, and Monroe Public Schools, alleging Monroe High School volleyball players had to share a locker room with and compete against a transgender athlete from Ann Arbor Skyline. Michigan’s education department said it received the complaint and is reviewing it, while the MHSAA confirmed it issued one transgender eligibility waiver statewide for the 2025–26 fall season but declined to identify the school or sport, citing student privacy.
