Baylor settles with ex-volleyball player who accused football players of gang rape

Baylor University has settled a Title IX lawsuit filed by a former volleyball player who accused four to eight football players of drugging and gang raping her in 2012, the Waco Tribune-Herald reported Friday.

It is the fifth Title IX lawsuit Baylor has settled, the report says. The terms of the settlement were not disclosed.

“Baylor University understands that survivors of sexual and interpersonal violence seek resolution in many ways,” a university statement said. “In reaching a legal settlement, we acknowledge the challenges this survivor has endured and realize it’s a small step in the healing process.
