Western investigating allegations of misconduct related to women’s hockey program

Western University has launched an independent review of allegations of misconduct related to the women’s hockey program. Multiple players reportedly claimed that coach Candice Moxley pressured players to play through their injuries and did not act on misconduct claims made against conditioning coach Jeff Watson. “The safety of our students always comes first and Western has rigorous processes for reviewing and addressing formal complaints,” Western said in a statement. CBC states that none of the allegations have been proven in court.
