US EditionBoston Alumni Defend Soccer Coach Amid Alex Cooper's Accusations: Report
- Podcast host Alex Cooper alleged that her former Boston University soccer coach, Nancy Feldman, sexually harassed her during her tenure on the team from 2013 to 2015. She detailed these accusations in a two-part documentary released on Hulu, debuting at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 8, 2025.
- Cooper accused Feldman of misusing her authority and making her experience at the university extremely difficult; she raised her concerns with the athletic director, but university officials reportedly failed to address her complaints.
- In response, 99 former Boston University women's soccer alumni, including 14 teammates overlapping with Cooper, signed a letter stating they never felt unsafe and described Feldman as a leader who acted with professionalism throughout her 27-year coaching career, retiring in 2022.
- The letter emphasized that its purpose was not to undermine Cooper's experience, and former player Stephanie Dreyer expressed a hope that Cooper would not endure any additional suffering.
- Boston University reaffirmed its zero-tolerance policy for sexual harassment, highlighted its robust support and reporting system through the Equal Opportunity Office, and encouraged community members to report concerns to maintain a safe campus environment.
