Per Mountain West Conference policy, the Conference will record the match as a forfeit and a loss for Boise State. The Broncos will next compete on Oct. 3 against Air Force.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>BSU has not confirmed that the forfeit is in response to the trans-female on SJSU&#8217;s team, and has not responded to further questions about the decision.<\/p>\n<p>Governor Little took to X in response to the decision, saying &#8220;I applaud [BSU] for working within the spirit of my Executive Order, the Defending Women\u2019s Sports Act. We need to ensure player safety for all of our female athletes and continue the fight for fairness in women\u2019s sports.<\/p>\n<p>Riley Gaines, former female athlete and women&#8217;s sports activist has posted on X applauding the decision of Southern Utah University volleyball, who also chose to forfeit a scheduled match against SJSU.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Risch joined Governor Little in offering &#8220;kudos to Boise State for taking a stand in women&#8217;s sports!&#8221; However, that still remains unclear as the motivation behind the decision by BSU without any further comment from the University.<\/p>\n<p>CBS2 will continue to investigate this story and will update you as we learn more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.idahonews.com\/news\/local\/boise-state-volleyball-forfeits-game-against-sjsu-amid-speculation-over-trans-athlete-governor-little-riley-gaines\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) \u2014 The Boise State Women&#8217;s Volleyball team has announced it will forfeit Saturday&#8217;s match against San Jose State, as first reported by BJ Rains at Bronco Nation &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=107870\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-107870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=107870"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107870\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=107870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=107870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=107870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
