LAS CRUCES - KRWG - via New Mexico News Network - On Sunday, the NMSU basketball season was suspended for the remainder of the season after allegations of hazing within the program.
On Feb. 10, a member of the NMSU basketball team told police that beginning around July of 2022, he was a victim of multiple instances of the hazing.
The alleged hazing involved criminal sexual contact, false imprisonment, and harassment by three teammates, according to a redacted NMSU Police report obtained by KRWG.
The redacted report does not name any individuals, but according to the victim's allegations, three of his teammates are directly involved in the misconduct, and the most recent incident occurred on Feb. 6.
