Months after anonymous soccer players spoke about “torture almost” workouts surfaced from Houston’s soccer team last June, A UH System Board of Regents internal audit released Thursday found that UH athletics acted appropriately following the incident.
The audit, which investigated the two incidents that resulted in several Rhabdomyolosis diagnoses, concluded that while the January workouts were not “punishment workouts,” they were excessive and should’ve been stopped by head coach Diego Bocanegra before the incident escalated.
“We determined that this was the first regularly scheduled workout for the soccer team following a return from Winter break (and was not a ‘punishment’ workout),” the report said.
