Matt Araiza No Longer Subject of SDSU Investigation After Gang-Rape Allegations

San Diego State University said an independent investigation could not corroborate allegations that former punter Matt Araiza was among the players who allegedly gang-raped a 17-year-old girl at an off-campus party in 2021.

"There are no findings against Matt Araiza," the school said in a statement to Dan Wetzel of Yahoo Sports on Thursday.

The school further confirmed he is no longer "subject of an active investigation" as the university continues looking into the allegations.

Araiza and at least two former San Diego State football players were accused of raping the girl at an off-campus party in 2021, according to a lawsuit filed last August.
