One district's superintendent announced that she had placed three staff members on leave and alerted law enforcement of some allegations from a “disturbing” chat thread involving a majority of the football team.
The California Interscholastic Federation, which oversees high school sports, said in a statement that it supported the decisions by Amador and River Valley to end their seasons. “Discrimination in any form or any acts that are disrespectful or demeaning are unacceptable,” the organization said.
“It was scary, and now it’s kinda scary every game,” said Arquelle Colson, who is Black and whose child is on the Rosemont JV team. But when Blackman, who is white, voiced that idea while sitting at an outdoor table in one of the many restaurants lining Sutter Creek’s Main Street, her friend Dave Lefebvre, who is also white, took issue with it. Perhaps the reprehensible title of the group chat was a misunderstanding, he said. Maybe it was referring to the fact that Rosemont’s jerseys are black, not to the race of the players?Lefebevre turned to her with wide eyes.
Lefebvre agreed with Connie — with whom he said he enjoys frequently spirited discussions because of their opposing politics — that it was “a bummer.”
