<p>Playing on a sport team is a privilege, not a right. Coach doesn’t want anyone (including recruits and the administration) to think that the softball team is a hard partying team. I get that. A good talking to by the coach, an apology by the player and perhaps a suspension might be in order. </p>
<p>The “threat,” in an of itself, sounds like verbal posturing on its face. But the fact that these girls were roommates and the other roommate felt threatened tells me that there could very well be something that’s gone on it the past that we’re not being told.</p>
<p>Doesn’t sound like a Hispanic thing going on as much as a socioeconomic cultural disconnect going on…assuming that the softball player is a street-savvy urban kid, what kind of school is Molloy College? If it’s a suburban, conservative, “values oriented” school full of “white kids,” I could definitely see a culture clash.</p>
