Good to see parents stepping up to try and educate these coaches that are living in the dark ages.

Yes good for the parents. Boys being boys is not acceptable. Both juvenile coaches should never ever coach again.

Maybe the players that did the hazing should be kicked off the team. If the Coaches get fired why should the players continue to play.

"forced to watch Spanish-language TV for a period of time"
What is the real story here? Were the victims Latinos and this was a racial hate crime? If not, this sounds like an extremely mild form of hazing with none of the physical or sexual abuse that you usually hear about.

I agree if any of the kids that knew what was happening and didn't report it or help the two that were being hazed they should be kicked off of the team. Shame on those coaches. Coaches are suppose to be role models and help the kids not do these types of things. BULLYING!!!!!!!!!

Let's see: the hazing included binding with duct tape and "taped the mouths of two varsity team members, including one freshman, applied makeup to their faces"
Yet poster @say what says "this sounds like an extremely mild form of hazing"
Dude, what decade are you living in?!?!?!?
Last time you were (INVOLUNTARILY) bound and gagged was....????
(yeah, I know, just another one of "those" on the edge who are offended about the 'Spanish language' part)
