S.D. wrestlers disciplined for hazing

ABERDEEN, S.D. (AP) — Some members of the Aberdeen Central High School wrestling team have been disciplined for hazing other students during a meet in Fargo in late December.

School District Attorney Rory King and Superintendent Gary Harms did not release details other than to say the students were disciplined according to district policy, which involves suspension from the team.

Fargo Police Sgt. Jason Nelson said officers are investigating the incident but he would not elaborate.

The number of students involved has not been released. Harms tells the American News that district officials are restricted on the information they can give out because minors are involved. Wrestling coach Shawn Lewis declined comment.
