Athletic (HS) hazing confronted dead-on

From FoxNews, 9/22/03:

PHILADELPHIA — A grand jury is investigating allegations that high school football players from New York sexually assaulted teammates during a hazing (search) ritual at a preseason training camp, a prosecutor said Monday.

State police and the grand jury are investigating whether members of the Mepham High School football team (search) in Bellmore, N.Y., sodomized younger players with a broomstick, pine cones and golf balls during a five-day trip to the Camp Wayne for Girls (search) in Preston Park, Pa., said the Wayne County, Pa., District Attorney, Mark R. Zimmer.

Zimmer called the allegations, "disgusting and horrific."

Sixty players and five coaches with the team attended the camp last month. Officials said the coaches slept in a different cabin from students and were unaware of any problems until a parent complained.

Mepham High School suspended three players following the allegations. The Bellmore-Merrick school district canceled the team's entire season last week, citing evidence that "a significant majority" of the team's players violated the district's code
