Ole Miss athletics director Keith Carter issued a statement on Wednesday regarding the Title IX investigation into allegations made towards the softball program, calling them unsubstantiated.
Head coach Jamie Trachsel and assistant coach Katie Rietkovich Browder were under investigation following an allegation made, stating Browder and a player on the team were having a relationship of some kind.
Running Poles, a podcast and website that covers softball, first reported the investigation after obtaining a letter sent to Carter that described the alleged relationship between the coach and unnamed player.
“Following a comprehensive investigation by the university’s Title IX office, the anonymous allegations of inappropriate behavior by the softball staff are unsubstantiated,” Carter said.
