Boise State Exits Tournament Amid Transgender Athlete Debate
TL;DR Summary
Boise State withdrew from the Mountain West women's volleyball tournament, refusing to face San Jose State in the semi-finals, after previously boycotting regular-season matches against them. This decision comes amid controversy over the participation of a transgender player on the San Jose State team, which has led to several teams forfeiting matches against them. A federal court recently upheld the player's right to participate, despite ongoing legal and political disputes over transgender athletes in women's sports.
