San Jose State's volleyball team, at the center of a national debate about women in sports, lost in the Mountain West tournament final to Colorado State, ending their season.
San Jose State 's volleyball team, embroiled in a national debate about women in sports, lost to Colorado State 27-25, 25-20, 23-25, 25-16 in the Mountain West tournament final, ending their season. The Rams (20-10) secured the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. San Jose State 's season was marked by forfeits, protests, and the politicization of gender identity.
Preceding the tournament, Boise State withdrew, citing a lawsuit that sought to prevent a transgender player from participating. U.S. Judge S. Kato Crews and a federal appeals court both ruled in favor of the player's participation. The Spartans, who had six forfeit victories due to opponent boycotts, were seeded second in the tournament, receiving a first-round bye. Wyoming, Utah State, Nevada, and Southern Utah also canceled matches this season due to the controversy
