An anonymous complaint has been filed against Goshen Community Schools alleging they violated Title IX inequity in the softball facility, for girls, compared to the baseball facility, for boys, at Goshen High School, according to ABC 57.

Goshen schools released a statement about the complaint saying they desire to provide the best facilities for all student-athletes, but that the high school sits in a location that is land locked and that additional athletic fields cannot be added to the campus.

They also state that the administration has, and continues to explore real estate acquisitions near their schools to build new competition facilities. The district also says it will cooperate with the investigation.

Goshen schools full statement:

GCS administrators desire to provide the best facilities for all student-athletes. Goshen High School sits in a location that is, for all intents and purposes, land locked. Additional athletic fields cannot simply be added to the high school campus. However, the GCS administration has, and continues to explore real estate acquisition near Goshen High School and other GCS properties, to build new competition facilities.

The varsity and junior varsity baseball teams playing at different locations is less than optimal. Additionally, all baseball and softball fields suffer from exposure to inclement weather, causing “rainouts.” All GHS student-athletes should be proud of their facilities and experience a “home field advantage.” To achieve that end, GCS administrators will continue to explore viable options which will allow our student-athletes, especially baseball and softball players, to participate in and enjoy top quality competition experiences.
