HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. -- A former Long Island high school girls volleyball coach was arrested Thursday and charged with raping one of his teenage players.

Shock and outrage swept across Sacred Heart Academy after 22-year-old Jason Maser, a former volleyball coach for the all-girls Catholic school, was accused of raping a 15-year-old player while working part-time as her coach at the college prep school in Hempstead.

"It's scary," one person said.

"It's horrible that someone would take advantage of their position," parent Sheena Falloon said.

The charges against Maser include rape, criminal sexual act and endangering the welfare of a child.

.............................
The felony complaint alleges the sexual acts happened at least twice inside his Jeep Cherokee -- once in February, and a second time just two weeks ago.

Coaches, clergy, and cops. As usual. Aristus Mar 23 #1
Teachers also have been caught often. jimfields33 Mar 23 #2
True. But they have more to risk. And usually more education. Aristus Mar 23 #3

Any schlub with an empty head, a pot belly, and a dream can become a coach, a clergyman, or a cop.
