said Jennifer Buckman, a senior psychology and Spanish major and volleyball player\u00a0 &#8220;LGBTQ persons have a lot to offer in the world of athletics, but there is still discrimination and stigma that surround this population that limits people from getting involved or staying involved in sports.
