The women’s volleyball team at the center of a national debate over gender and sports advanced to the conference championship after Boise State refused to play.

The Broncos had already forfeited two matches against the Spartans based on moral grounds. Now Boise State has done so a third time with a lot more at stake.

San Jose State says it's disappointed that Boise State forfeited its semifinal match in the Mountain West women's volleyball tournament but is focused on the future.
