SJSU Volleyball Player Joins Title IX Lawsuit Against NCAA Over Transgender Athlete Policy
Brooke Slusser alleges the NCAA violated Title IX by allowing a male-born athlete to compete in women's sports and use women's facilities.
- Brooke Slusser, co-captain of SJSU's women's volleyball team, is suing the NCAA for Title IX violations alongside other female athletes.
- The lawsuit claims the NCAA has compromised women's sports by permitting transgender athletes to compete against biologically female athletes.
- Slusser was not informed that her teammate Blaire Fleming, a transgender player, was biologically male until after joining the team.
- The presence of Fleming has led to tensions within the team and concerns about fairness and safety from both teammates and opposing teams.
- Despite the controversy, SJSU's volleyball team is having a historic season, remaining undefeated and achieving significant victories.
