Boise State Forfeits Volleyball Match Amid Transgender Player Controversy
Boise State’s women’s volleyball team withdrew from the Mountain West Conference Championship tournament, forfeiting their match against San Jose State. This follows a season of similar withdrawals by other schools, fueled by unfounded rumors and a lawsuit concerning the eligibility of a San Jose State player. A federal judge ruled the player eligible to compete, a decision upheld on appeal. Despite this ruling, political figures have voiced support for the boycotts, citing concerns about fairness in women’s sports.
