Ahead of Colorado State game, San Jose State taking steps to protect volleyball players amid transgender controversy

SAN JOSE – San Jose State has taken measures to ensure its women’s volleyball team remains safe from potential outside antagonists as the program finds itself in the middle of a debate over the role of transgender athletes. The team, which plays Thursday night at Colorado State, has had extra security from university police for the last several weeks, including on the road, according to SJSU spokesperson Michelle Smith McDonald. McDonald described some social media activity directed at the team and university as “unsettling”, noting that the university’s top priority is student safety. Four schools, including Wyoming Tuesday and Utah State Wednesday, have forfeited matches against the Spartans this season.
