This is a story about Shayne Stone.  Shayne is a junior student athlete, member of Sigma Phi Epsilon with majors in exercise science and biopsychology. He competes for the Monmouth College Fighting Scots swimming and diving team and up until this year, Shayne was a female.
Born Sadie Stone, Shayne grew up in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Growing up, Shayne knew that he was transgender at a very early age.
“I had my sixth birthday party, and my dad said ‘Alright, put on your swim suit,’ and we had this big long argument because I didn’t want to put on a girl’s swimsuit, I just wanted to wear shorts. I ended up wearing the shorts, and it was fantastic,†Shayne said. “I didn’t really know what it was when I was younger; I just thought I fit in with the guys. When I was in eighth grade, I was watching the news, and there was this guy who was going to be a male model and used to be a girl. That was the first time I heard the word ‘transgender’ and I was like, ‘Yes, that’s what I am.’â€
