COVINGTON, Ky. (AP) — A University of Maryland assistant women’s basketball coach has been suspended after a player he coached at Xavier University accused him of groping her.

Court records show Bryce McKey was scheduled to appear Friday in a Kenton County, Kentucky, court to face a charge of third-degree sexual abuse, a misdemeanor. Covington Police Chief Bryan Carter confirmed police have been investigating McKey, but declined further comment.

According to a sworn affidavit, the Xavier (of Cincinnati) player says McKey asked her to come to his home in Covington in May. She says during the evening, he repeatedly touched her inappropriately.

A phone message was left Friday at McKey’s office. School spokesman Zack Bolno says he is suspended indefinitely.

The Associated Press isn’t naming the woman because of the nature of the case.

  1. This is poorly reported.

  2. Your headline would be better if it noted it was an assistant coach who has been charged.

  3. Why do people think they can get away with this kind of stuff? Really dumb. Now he’s lost his job, and probably the ability to ever work with young persons again. Just dumb…

  4. “Thinking” is never involved in such behavior.

  5. Sometimes the penis has a mind of its own. I certainly see a lot of young persons that make my little buddy perk right up. The difference is that I keep the thoughts to myself.
