The University of Montana did not discriminate against former women's basketball coach Shannon Schweyen when it opted not to renew her contract in 2020, a U.S. District Court judge ruled Tuesday.

As reported by Jeff Welsch of 406mtsports.com, Schweyen, perhaps the greatest player in Montana Lady Griz history and a 24-year assistant under coaching legend Robin Selvig before she was hired as head coach in 2016, filed suit against the school in November 2021, alleging it violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. She also alleged her pay didn't properly align with that of men's basketball coach Travis DeCuire.
