The case, which alleges upper classmen on the baseball team openly discussed hazing and sexually assaulted a freshman student on the bus in the presence of the head baseball coach during the 2019-2020 school year, is set to move forward. Claims that the district created a heightened risk for students to be sexually assaulted were denied by the judge. <!--more--> <\/p>\n<p>The judge\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s order determined the lawsuit has sufficiently argued that Brownsboro ISD knew about the harassment and was \u00e2\u20ac\u0153deliberately indifferent\u00e2\u20ac\u009d to it.
