Kylee Alons is a 31 time All American, 2 time NCAA national champion and 5 time ACC champion. She is considered the most decorated swimmer in NC State history.

In 2022 at the NCAA Women’s Swimming and Diving Championship, Kylee was forced to share a locker room with University of Pennsylvania swimmer and biological male Lia Thomas. After feeling tense and exposed in the locker room, she discovered a utility closet behind the bleachers where she would change in for the remainder of the competition in order to avoid having to undress in front of a male.

She sits down with Penny Nance to share her story for the first time.
