Former California high school football player, Riley Cochran-Hernandez, has filed a federal lawsuit against his coaches, Jeff Remington and Matt Costa, alleging years of abuse, racial harassment and retaliation that destroyed his athletic career. The complaint, which covers more than 20 pages, alleges a pattern of misconduct that created a hostile and unsafe environment for student-athletes. It alleges that players were required to perform rigorous drills in extreme heat and limited access to water, leading to injuries and long-term complications, including nerve damage. CochranHernandez did not receive any college offers and had his athletic prospects "materially and potentially permanently foreclosed". The lawsuit also alleges that after raising concerns with school officials about the abuse, he was dismissed from the team.
