Some Middletown High School football players may not be able to play in Saturday’s Division III Super Bowl against Moses Brown, according to a student who called The Daily News on Friday morning. The student said multiple players, as well as some cheerleaders, were dismissed from the team in the wake of an off-campus incident.
Football coach Andy Leys and athletic director Eric Godin said they were not authorized to speak about the issue.
As of yet, neither principal Steven S. Ruscito nor Superintendent Rosemarie K. Kraeger have returned phone calls seeking comment. A person answering the phone at the high school said Ruscito met with football players this afternoon. Students later attended a pep rally for the football team in the gym.
Middletown defeated Rogers in the semifinals on Tuesday night for the right to face Moses Brown on Saturday at Cranston Stadium. The game is scheduled to start at 3 p.m.
Check back later, and in the Saturday edition of The Daily News for more details.
