Athletic department and campus police administer drug tests as part of investigation; Campus policy says athletes should be immediately suspended if drug test failed; who, if anyone has been suspended is unknown
The Blog has learned that as part of an investigation into alleged drug use among Yavapai Community College athletes, the Campus police and the athletic department had some players take drug tests. The Blog has been reliably informed that some of those students tested positive for drugs. The test results appear to violate Athletic Department Drug Policy 4.2. According to Community College policy, “athletes who violate this policy will be subject to immediate suspension from all participation in team sports, as well as other discipline.” As a result of the investigation, the Community College has apparently taken some action. However, the Blog is unaware of any athletes being suspended so far. The College remains mum on the issue.
