Judge S. Kato Crews ruled that the request to declare a transgender player ineligible was filed too late, emphasizing that the plaintiffs were unlikely to win the case.
The Court noted that there was no evidence showing the plaintiffs were precluded from seeking emergency relief earlier, indicating a lack of urgency in their claims.
San Jose State University supported the ruling, highlighting that all student-athletes are eligible under NCAA and Mountain West Conference regulations, showing their commitment to inclusivity.
Crews stressed that Title IX and the Fourteenth Amendment effectively ban anti-trans discrimination, establishing a legal precedent that protects the rights of transgender athletes.
