After a lengthy discussion, the University of Wyoming will not play its scheduled conference match against San José State University in the UniWyo Sports Complex on Saturday, Oct. 5. Per Mountain West Conference policy, the Conference will record the match as a forfeit and a loss for Wyoming.
This marks the third team to forfeit a match against San José due to allegations of a transgender player being on the team. This forfeiture, along with the other two - from Boise State University and Southern Utah University - comes in response to a lawsuit filed by anti-trans activist Riley Gaines.
The Legislature has been very clear that the University of Wyoming, being a publicly funded land grant institution, should not participate in the extremist agenda of Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) or propagate this narrative.
