Boise State University made a surprising decision to withdraw from the Mountain West women's volleyball tournament, even after securing a spot in the semifinals against San Jose State. This move came after Boise State had twice boycotted regular-season matches with San Jose State, leading to speculation about the reasons behind their withdrawal.
San Jose State, on the other hand, received six forfeit victories due to boycotts from Mountain West opponents, earning them the second seed in the conference tournament and a first-round bye. With Boise State's exit, the Spartans will now advance directly to Saturday's championship match without playing on Friday.
