HIGH SCHOOL BALL PLAYERS STUMBLE OFF FIELD

 

COLUMBUS, Ohio (Reuters) - A high school baseball team committed its

worst error off the field during a road trip last week by hiring strippers to

perform in their hotel room, the Columbus Dispatch reported on Friday.

 

School authorities in Lancaster, Ohio, near Columbus suspended 14 players

from school for a week, kicked them off the team and suspended head coach

Tim Graham, who resigned his coaching and teaching position at the school

on Thursday.

 

Graham said neither he nor his coaches were with the players when the

episode occurred during a road trip in Cincinnati, but accepted full

responsibility for not exercising proper supervision.

 

The players pooled their spending money and hired the strippers after calling

a service advertised in the telephone book, the newspaper reported.

 

 

 

Probably the wrong kind of strippers, anyway....
