FORT COLLINS — You know what Inclusive Excellence Day at Moby Arena didn’t include? Droves of armed police. Protests outside or inside the facility. The Rams swept San Joe State, 3-0. No offensive signs. No hollering. There was, by media count, one armed security officer standing outside the visiting locker room. A trans player took the court for the visiting Spartans and it felt like any other Mountain West volleyball match. Which, of course, it wasn’t. “Yeah, I mean, I walked up to (CSU coach) Emily (Kohan), and I was like, ‘Should I say thank you for playing us tonight?’ And I seriously meant that,” said Spartans volleyball coach Todd Kress, whose team has become a political wedge issue recently as four schools have canceled either past or future matches with the program. “Because, of course, we’re disappointed that we’re losing opportunities to play.
