Suspended San Jose State women's volleyball associate head coach Melissa Batie-Smoose spoke out about the dire situation plaguing women's sports.
San Jose State Spartans women’s volleyball associate head coach Melissa Batie-Smoose sounded the alarm about trans inclusion in women’s sports as she is embroiled in her own controversy. Batie-Smoose was suspended indefinitely after she filed a Title IX complaint against the school alleging that Blaire Fleming, the team’s transgender player, conspired with an opponent to help the team lose a match and injure teammate Brooke Slusser.
The coach told Fox News Channel just how dire the situation in women’s sports is. 'Safety is being taken away from women,' Batie-Smoose said in a segment on 'America's Newsroom.' 'Fair play is taken away from women. We need more and more people to do this and fight this fight because women’s sports, as we know it right now will be forever changed.' San Jose State released a statement to OutKick after Batie-Smoose was suspended.
