CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) Five former members of the University of Virginia men's swim team are asking a judge to dismiss a hazing lawsuit by an ex-teammate who has accused them of ordering unwanted sexual contact and forcing him to eat a goldfish.
In motions filed this week in U.S. District Court, attorneys for the five say that Anthony Marcantonio failed to provide sufficient facts to support his allegations of assault, false imprisonment and hazing. They also say that Marcantonio received written notice of the August 2014 ''Welcome Week'' activities, that he was a willing participant and that he could have opted out of any activities he found objectionable.
