US Edition'Blood Everywhere' - Ex-College Baseball Player Alleges 'Brutal' Hazing By Teammates
- A 17-year-old freshman pitcher from New York filed a lawsuit on Wednesday alleging sexualized hazing at Seton Hall University’s baseball program during the 2024 fall season in South Orange, NJ.
- The suit states the hazing began upon his August 2024 arrival and included head shaving, forced genital exposure, watching teammates masturbate, and participation in sexual rituals dubbed 'Lotus' and 'Kangs'.
- The complaint accuses longtime coach Rob Sheppard of knowing about the abusive environment but failing to discipline perpetrators, allowing the hazing to continue and causing physical, emotional, and professional harm.
- The plaintiff described the hazing as 'sick, sick stuff' and said he was called a 'rat' after resisting, prompting his transfer in September 2024 to a Division III program, which reduced his career prospects.
- The lawsuit seeks over $1 million in compensatory damages and demands Seton Hall implement strict anti-hazing policies, while the university states it is committed to safety and has launched a third-party investigation.
