Fresno State to face San Jose State in women's volleyball match following transgender athlete controversy

Fresno State's women's volleyball team will play San Jose State on Tuesday. This match follows several forfeits by other teams against San Jose State due to claims about a transgender athlete on their roster. A lawsuit was filed by San Jose State players and a suspended coach, alleging that the Mountain West Conference is violating Title IX by allowing the transgender athlete to compete. The Mountain West Conference stated it prioritizes student-athlete welfare and adheres to NCAA policies. Fresno State confirmed the match will proceed as scheduled. The outcome may affect Fresno State's seeding in the upcoming conference tournament.
