Head coach Candice Moxley returning to her role following third-party investigation, but strength and conditioning coach Jeff Watson is no longer with the university, Rick Westhead writes.
Western University - The Canadian PressWestern University says women’s hockey team head coach Candice Moxley will continue in her role following aSchool spokeswoman Marcia Steyaert wrote in an email to TSN Wednesday that London, Ont., lawyer Elizabeth Hewitt conducted interviews with 45 individuals and reviewed evidence before determining that the allegations Moxley had breached the school’s code of conduct were unsubstantiated.
“We appreciate investigations such as these can create stress for all those involved. We are thankful to the individuals who took time to participate in this process,” Doerksen said in a statement. “We will be working closely with our women’s hockey student-athletes and coaching staff during this transition period.
Western opened an investigation into the alleged misconduct in July. Allegations made by players against Moxley include claims that she pressured players to play through injuries and didn’t act when players told her about Watson’s alleged misconduct. One source told TSN that Moxley was advised repeatedly over the past several seasons that Watson had made inappropriate statements about players’ bodies and had inappropriately touched some players.
“With regards to the handling of concerns by the sports and recreation department, Hewitt found there were no formal complaints filed with the university prior to 2023 and that informal concerns raised to the department in February 2022 regarding the women’s hockey program were addressed appropriately at the time,” Steyaert wrote in her email to TSN.
