From the Associated Press, proof that you don’t need the directorial skills of Todd Phillips to party in style.
Frostburg, Md. — Six female field hockey players hazed their new college teammates by urging them to drink so much beer and liquor that one 18-year-old was hospitalized with a blood-alcohol level more than four times the legal limit, police say.
The Frostburg State University freshmen also were pelted with flour, ice and eggs, and made to sit in their own vomit and urine, according to charges filed by police in Allegany County Court.
Five of the women were charged with second-degree assault and hazing, police said Wednesday. Charges were pending against the sixth, they said.
The documents also named six victims, including an 18-year-old whom police saw being carried, unconscious, by her boyfriend along a street.
Her blood-alcohol content was measured at a hospital at 0.365; the legal limit for drivers in Maryland is 0.08.
The “secret buddy Christmas party” is thrown annually by senior team members to initiate new members, according to a police report.
I believe that all this hype about the hazers is not necessary. I know the 5 girls that are being charged for hazing and assult and I truley believe that all the press has blown this situation out of proportion. If what really happened is as bad as the ONE freshman out of THIRTEEN has made it sound then the girls would have been expelled. The victim in this situation is not even the girl who is making a big deal out of what happened, it is another girl that has been known to stretch the truth.
Thanks, Alyssa. I hate it when the media hype things out of proportion, and this blog is committed to bringing the truth to light. \
With that in mind, do you have any photographs or video footage you can share with us?
unless u were their u have no idea what really happened…and for the record the articlues are wrong! we did not sit in r own urine!
thank you for that. And again, I’m 100% committed to helping everyone understand what happened. If you have any photographic or video footage you’d be willing to share, that would be greatly appreciated. Or even a first person account of what you and your field hockey colleagues endured…what you were pelted with…what you did or didn’t sit in…what you were wearing at the time (details are _very_ important) etc. Thank you.
