Wedgies May End H.S. Football Season

HAVERVILL, Mass. (CBS13) ― A few wedgies may cost some members of a high school football team a chance at making the playoffs.

Six players on the Whittier Vocational Technical High School in Massachusetts are in trouble for giving teammates wedgies after Monday's practice.

The school says that amounts to hazing and that means there will be suspensions. Some of their fellow students do not agree with the punshiment.

"it's a harmless thing everybody does, and the people in school now all do it. It's better than doing drugs in school, and that's the truth," said student Phil Blankenship, "At least they're not smoking pot or doing crack on the street corner waiting for the bus. They're just giving harmless wedgies."

School administrators insist it wasn't harmless and that the actions violate a "no hazing policy."
So now.. the players will miss this weekend's game that will determine if the team gets into the playoffs.
