Hat tip to "anonymous" for the link. From the article:
He is looking forward to Nov. 13, when Allums and the team will compete at the Best Buy Classic in Minneapolis. The game will be his public debut as a transgender man playing on a women’s team, but it will take place on friendly turf. Allums grew up in St. Paul and the nearby town of Hugo, and the stands will be packed with old friends.
“We’re ready to go,” Allums said of the team, adding that the transition had improved his game. “I’m able to just focus on basketball now. My outside life is not really a distraction to me.”
