Northwestern's Women Soccer Team Suspended

Nothing like good old fashion "alleged" hazing...at least this time a men's team avoids the fall:

Northwestern University suspended its women's soccer team Monday while the school investigates alleged hazing involving players last year.

The school learned of the allegations Monday, athletics director Mark Murphy said in a statement.

"If the investigation shows that there has been a violation of Northwestern's policies, appropriate sanctions will be imposed and the Athletic Department may take additional action as well,'' Murphy said.

The statement did not provide details about the alleged incident, and a Northwestern spokesman Alan Cubbage said the school would not comment further.

A Web site on Monday displayed pictures allegedly of Northwestern soccer players in T-shirts and underwear, some wearing blindfolds and others with their hands tied behind their backs.

Other women had words or pictures scrawled on their bodies and clothes, and it appeared some were drinking alcohol.
