NEEDHAM, Mass.—A judge has refused to overturn the hazing suspensions of five players on Needham High School's girls soccer team.
As a result, the players will not be allowed on the field for Tuesday's state tournament game against Brockton.
WBZ-TV reported that four seniors and one freshmen were suspended following the hazing incident and the team's coach placed on leave.
The station reported that the hazing victims were blindfolded and led around on dog leashes, then hit in their faces with pies.
Parents of the suspended students sought an injunction
