Curry College Cancels Lax Season Over Hazing Incident

Boston.com - Curry College decided to suspend the remainder of the men's lacrosse season Monday, after allegations of team hazing came to light. According to Milton police, the alleged hazing happened at an off-campus party in February, but Fran Jackson, director of communications at Curry, said the school only recently found out."Upon being made aware of the allegations, the college took swift action to the issue and this involved launching our own internal investigation and reporting it to the Milton Police Department as required by law," Jackson said. Various members of the team have stated the allegations are false, with freshman Mike Hibbard telling Channel 25 that nothing happened. "We weren't hurt," Hibbard said. "We weren't forced to do anything." "I just think it's very unnecessary," player Evan Hammersley told the television station. "Honestly, I really think they're just trying to make an example of us."Jackson said any additional sanctions for students directly involved in the alleged hazing would be issued after internal and external investigations are complete. Sanctions could vary from suspension to expulsion. Jackson said the team, which was 2-5, is expected to play a full season next year.de

Obviously the season got canceled.  That’s what happens when you’re 2-5.  The administration was probably just looking for an excuse to end the embarrassment.   I mean don’t think for a second if this team was 7-0 that they wouldn’t have looked the other way with this.  But losers don’t get the benefit off the doubt.    Also how dumb does this team have to be.   I mean you want to get your team back?  You don’t whine to the press.   You send your big guns into the Dean’s office and work out a deal.  I’m obviously talking about Curry College WWE Tag Team Champions Nolan/Bonnie.  They would have had this thing fixed in two seconds.   Because when you look like they do you get what you want when you want.

PS- Bonus points to the first Curry College lax player who tells me what happened at the party
