Statement from Swampscott Superintendent – Pamela R. H. Angelakis  (Regarding Hazing Incident

“On Monday morning, I became aware of an incident allegedly involving members of the Swampscott High School football team at Blocksidge Field Friday night. After speaking with the Swampscott Police Department, it became clear that the incident required further investigation by Swampscott Public Schools.

From what I have been able to determine, there were no adults present at the time of the incident. Understanding that all the facts have yet to be presented, I do not feel it is appropriate for the football team to take the field representing Swampscott High School at this time. As a result, we have canceled Thursday’s freshman game and Saturday’s varsity game vs. Saugus.

While the investigation is ongoing, it is not appropriate to comment further at this time.”
