Petition signed by nearly 200 current and ex-Huntington women's athletes will call for ouster of university leaders who knew about abuse allegations.
A federal lawsuit was filed Sept. 30 on behalf of two former runners, Hannah Stoffel and Emma Wilson, alleging criminal battery by Nick Johnson and negligence by Lauren Johnson, his wife; Hines; Huntington University, and other school officials. HU was also accused of Title IX violations.The petition urges Nick Johnson, Lauren Johnson and Hines not have access to university facilities or to students. It asks HU's athletics hall of fame reconsider including Nick and Lauren Johnson.
The petition expresses"full support" for Stoffel, Wilson and other athletes who felt unsafe on campus. The petition refers to scripture passages citing Christians leaders as shepherds and, in this case, to students. Austin Roark, first-year head coach in men’s and women’s track and field, has taken over as women’s cross-country coach. He was formerly an assistant at Indiana Tech, where his expertise was in jumping events, not distance running.
