BOWLING GREEN — Several former Bowling Green State University gymnasts and their families have made accusations of mistreatment by coach Kerrie Turner and her top assistant, Jason Bauer — but the school paid for an investigation into the claims and said it found no evidence of physical or mental abuse, or any violations of NCAA rules.
The program is embroiled in a dispute over the coaching of Mrs. Turner and Mr. Bauer, who some families say should be fired for their alleged behavior, while other families believe the pair has done nothing wrong.
The Blade obtained internal documents through a public records request and contacted more than 20 people in and out of the BG gymnastics program.
