The University launched on Wednesday an internal review of policies and processes, according to KPRC (Channel 2), after a member of the soccer team detailed the grueling January workout that landed 12 players in the hospital with rhabdomyolysis, a condition that can lead to kidney failure.
The player, who asked to remain anonymous due to fear of retaliation from the program and the University, according to KPRC, described the nearly hour-long “punishment workout” as leaving her feeling “tortured almost.”
“I was just so mad and confused because, of course, I was going to keep going ’cause I’m scared,” the player told KPRC.
