Haverhill High School is shutting down all football activities, canceling all future practices and forfeiting the Thanksgiving Day game, due to serious misconduct involving some members of the school’s team. The mayor of the Massachusetts city later specified that the misconduct was a hazing incident.
In a message obtained by NewsCenter 5, Haverhill Public Schools Superintendent Margaret Marotta, Haverhill High Interim Principal Kevin Soraghan and Haverhill High Athletics Director Thomas O’Brien informed the school community that “significant material” was uncovered Wednesday in the investigation into misconduct involving some members of the high school football team.
