Hofstra University football players subjected a female staffer to sexual taunts and locked her in a bus bathroom, and the coach downplayed her complaints, the woman said in a lawsuit.


Players hollered that they wanted to see assistant athletic manager Lauren Summa's "boobies," propositioned her for sex and otherwise assailed her with "relentless sexual harassment" during trips to away games in the 2006 season, according to a sexual discrimination lawsuit filed Friday in federal court in Brooklyn.

On an October 2006 bus ride back from a game at the University of Delaware, players locked Summa in the bathroom, the lawsuit claims.

When she complained to head coach David Cohen about the players' conduct, he told her it wasn't serious, and reporting it to campus authorities "would only draw unnecessary attention to the football program," according to Summa's court complaint. A former Miss Teen Pennsylvania and Miss Teen Pittsburgh, according to a Hofstra cross country team guide from her freshman year, the 23-year-old is now a graduate student in communications at the Hempstead, N.Y.-based university.

If it is true,I hope she gets everything she wants plus the coach fired and the scholorships revoked of the players. Coud there be criminal charges if found to be true.
