An as-yet-unnamed parent is reportedly under criminal prosecution for having administered injections to the players.
The players apparently had admitted to having taken injections and missed 28 days of summer practices for that confession. They were then drug-tested 33 days after their initial admission and tested negative for foreign substances.
An assistant on the junior high team and a teacher’s aide, Aaron Muller, resigned from his position in July after allegations of a PED scandal surfaced during the summer. Muller is also the older brother of one of the players accused of having used PEDs.Â
