on oct 18 and 19 when the alcohol incident occurred principal rod leonard said as a result we had to take action said leonard its unacceptable behavior the punished students which included members of the team the team manager and two fans faced threeday suspensions ending monday the suspensions also mean that the senior boys volleyball team is disbanded as well the students will not be allowed to attend this years semiformal or partici pate in any sports for the remainder of this season leonard stressed some students however felt that the punishment was too severe while one suspended student has admit ted to drinking alcohol hes claiming that the suspensions were unjust i just dont think its fair said the student who is 17 the spectators shouldnt have been sus pended when asked whether the suspensions were effective the student grinned it worked students who were not suspended agree that the punishment was too strict they also take issue with the fact that fans who were not officially on the school trip were also suspended i dont think its fair said chris lam- ont 18 the punishment was too harsh for the spectators aaron altman 17 said i think it was too harsh because its been such a long time since the incident maybe if it was for something more serious but it was only drinking john tamlin 18 a member of the team who was not suspended doubts the pun ishment will have any effect i dont think it worked said tamlin they wont learn anything by being sent home for three days in support of those some students wore the volleyball players uniforms on the annual halloween dressup day last week the administration however felt that such a display of support was inappropri ate in light of the facts involved confiscat ing one of the jerseys once the whole story was heard parents and students had to accept the facts said the principal he added the rules are fair and clear leonard hopes that the suspensions will send a message to potential rulebreakers that sdss is not a place where drinking alcohol is taken lightly its our reputation in the sports commu nity and in the town said leonard we dont need that kind of behavior watch for these flyers on saturday november
