U.S. District Judge Kato Crews denied a motion seeking emergency injunctive relief to ban the San Jose State player.

The Mountain West Conference's transgender participation policy has been in place since 2022 , the judge says.

The lawsuit seeks to strip the Spartans of six league wins obtained by forfeit and prevent the team from participating in the conference tournament.

The player believed to be transgender had already played at San Jose .

Boise State , Wyoming , Utah State , Nevada and Nevada boycott San Jose State volleyball match.

Boise State says it would accept a forfeit loss if it drew San Jose in the Mountain West tournament.

Judge refuses to provide injunctive relief, saying it would risk confusion and upend months of planning.
