Wyoming volleyball player's impassioned plea to ban trans athletes from women's sports : 'Stop this injustice' A Wyoming bill aimed at banning transgender athletes from participating in women's collegiate sports advanced through committee on Friday at the urging of Cowgirls volleyball player Macey Boggs.

Boggs was a member of the UW volleyball team that forfeited a pair of games this past season against San Jose State over objections to a trans player on the Spartans.

'I was [denied] the chance to play my final collegiate matches because we faced a situation no woman should have to face: either compete against a team rostering a male athlete on a woman's scholarship, robbing us of fair and safe competition, or forfeit the rest of our season.'.

SJSU's women's volleyball team has suffered a mass exodus after the Blaire Fleming saga.

Those forfeitures resulted in the Cowgirls' failure to advance to the Mountain West tournament, thereby ending Boggs' collegiate volleyball career.
