This letter is to share preliminary information regarding a current investigation into an alleged incident that took place at last night’s boy's varsity lacrosse game between Anthony Wayne and Perrysburg. The District was made aware of allegations of an inappropriate, racially derogatory comment made by an Anthony Wayne athlete toward a Perrysburg athlete last night.

This report is being taken very seriously and will be investigated thoroughly. Our school officials are working with Perrysburg school administrators and ask that our community allow time for additional conversations and information gathering to take place.

Anthony Wayne Local Schools does not condone this type of behavior. We will continue the investigation and pursue the appropriate due process.

Thank you,
Kevin Pfefferle
