NC State Athletes Push Forward After Lawsuit Dismissed
Description
A North Carolina State University judge tossed out a lawsuit from 31 former male athletes accusing the school’s former sports medicine director of sexual abuse disguised as treatment — but the dismissal was over legal procedure, not the allegations. The plaintiffs vow to appeal, saying the judge’s ruling doesn’t address the core claims, and warn more victims may come forward. The director’s defense calls it a rush to judgment ruining his career for money, insisting nothing improper occurred. NC State stands by its zero-tolerance stance on misconduct and agrees with the dismissal, while expressing empathy for victims. The case originally stemmed from one athlete’s 2022 federal filing, with the judge citing expired statutes and improper jurisdiction for claims against athletics officials.
