SNAP calls punishment for student 'outrageous'
Teen barred from sports after affair with teacher

AYERSVILLE, Ohio - Ayersville High School's decision to bar a student from spring sports because of "moral infractions" related at least in part to an affair he had with one of his married teachers isn't sitting well with an area group fighting sexual abuse.
"I think what they're doing is outrageous," said Claudia Vercellotti, co-director of SNAP - Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests and other church leaders.
Ms. Vercellotti said she fears Ayersville's decision will lead teenagers who have been sexually abused to be less likely to come forward, feeling that they might be blamed or punished by people who say it takes two to tango.
