James Clarkson, head coach and general manager of the National Women’s Soccer League’s Houston Dash, on Friday denied allegations stemming from an ongoing league-wide investigation into what the team called “current and historic complaints of discrimination, harassment and abuse” in the NWSL.
The Dash on Tuesday suspended Clarkson pending the results of the investigation, a joint effort between the NWSL and its Players Association that began last year.
“I am totally shocked by unfounded and baseless allegations that have not yet been explained in any formal way,” he said in a statement given to The Post and other outlets.
