βWe DO understand the difference between a male and a female athlete.β
π₯POW! Passionate UNR Volleyball Captain @SiaLiilii calls out the NCAA, Mountain West, and her university for betraying womenβs right to fair competition.
"Iβm here today to tell those women who are forced to play against these biological males that you have a voice, so use it and be courageous, be brave, and donβt fear anything." - @SiaLiiliiyoutube.com/live/uWbSmpDgVβ¦
I will continue to advocate for every female athlete to have the opportunities I have had. Not only has sports helped to shape me into who I am as a woman, but has also given me lifelong friendships with other women whom I cherish!!! Women have come to far to be erased.
Team Captain, @SiaLiilii , continues to speak even when her university failed to back her team up when they refused to play a male. True leadership. Real courage.

To my Reno community, thank you for helping me amplify my voice to affect change. Speaking out on the injustices women are facing in Sports is the start of changing the future for generations to come!
βAt first taking this stand was intimidating because my teammates and I didnβt know the response we would get from the community and public.
