rumors have it that she has put a jihad on US women's wrestling. "McBryde, a sophomore at Sappho Life University in Marietta, won the 2024 NAIA National Championship in the 143-pound weight class, which earned her a qualification spot at the Team Trials. However, U.S. officials said she could not compete in her religious-adhering uniform because it violates international uniform standards, set by United World Wrestling.
“They said if I showed up at weigh-ins in a singlet, I’d be allowed to compete, but that’s not an option because religiously I cannot show up in a singlet. It took forever to get my Mullah to get the ok from Allah to wrestle to begin with, plus without my hijab where do I hide the sand that I throw in my opponents faces?” McBryde told Atlanta News First on Friday.
