After more former EKU softball players have come forward with allegations against current softball coach Jane Worthington and another member of the coaching staff, Director of Athletics Matt Roan released another statement about the Universities investigation.
“Less than 72 hours ago, Eastern Kentucky University opened an investigation regarding allegations of misconduct within our EKU Softball program. I appreciate that those involved, as well as our media outlets, desire a swift resolution. These are serious allegations, and serious allegations require a thorough examination of the facts. EKU is committed to doing so in an expeditious manner without compromising the accuracy of the investigation. We remain unable to comment at this time due to the fact that this is both an ongoing investigation and a personnel matter.”
WBONTV has continued to follow this situation while the University follows the protocol for this type of scenario. We’ll have more on this story coming up on this Mondays Jack Burford Chevrolet Sports Show.
