Jason Gesser has resigned as assistant athletic director at Washington State University, effective immediately, following new allegations of sexual misconduct against him by a former WSU volleyball player.
Alyssa Wold-Bodeau, who played volleyball for the Cougars from 2012 to '13, told The Daily Evergreen on Monday that Gesser groped her and tried forcefully to kiss her after the two attended a fundraising event in 2015.
The allegations came just four days after Gesser was cleared of similar allegations by a university investigation.
"I am deeply saddened that recent circumstances in my private life have created a distraction for the Department and the University," Gesser said in a letter of resignation that was made public.
