Alleged Lacrosse Cheating Caught On Tape

Reporting

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (CBS4) ― The Colorado High School Activities Association is investigating two Arapahoe High School lacrosse players who are accused of cheating in a state playoff game. The alleged play was caught on tape during a game against Fort Collins.

The two players do a move known as the "hidden ball trick." The players huddle, then break, leaving the opposing team guessing who has the ball.

The videotape showed in this case, one of the players hid the ball in his glove, then pulled it out when no one was looking and scored a goal.

"What they did was innappropriate and unethical," said Rob Gormley, a youth lacrosse coach who said he knows both players. "It's bad not just to themselves, but Arapahoe High School and the lacrosse community in general."

The Arapahoe Athletic Director released a statement saying the school doesn't condone behavior outside the rules. The school will be following up with the players.

CHSAA said sanctions are pending the investigation.
