A young woman has reported that De Anza College baseball players sexually assaulted her at a party months before members of the team were accused of raping another woman at the same house.
"The sheriff's department is aware of the allegation and will look into it," said Sgt. Ed Wise of the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department, adding that deputies take rape allegations seriously.
The fact that the allegations involve the same house is "frightening," Wise said.
Sources close to the investigation say the woman came forward with claims she was raped in December only after sheriff's deputies began checking a 17-year-old girl's report that she was assaulted at the house in unincorporated San Jose in March. Investigators said Monday that they first heard rumors about the December party with the players and the woman, who was 18 to 21 years old, during interviews while following up on the March case.
It was unclear Monday whether the same group of men are involved in both reports. Wise said the two incidents potentially share some of the same suspects.
Nobody has been charged in connection with the allegations.

Withholding judgement until physical evidence is produced.
Could boys possibly be THIS STUPID?
Sensible answer.
Too bad Nifong - in spite of the physical evidence - didn't follow the law.
we’re talking about college boys..yes, they can be that stupid..
Yes they can, and group could be even dumber.
Not to make light of the possible event, but I hope there is a missing comma in that sentence.
We have laws. They need to be followed.
Nifong forgot that.
Testosterone + alcohol = rocket fuel. Having said that, these wouldn't be the first minors to cry rape when they stayed out past curfew.
Like others here, nowhere near enough info at this point to begin forming anything like an educated opinion about this incident.

College girls can be pretty stupid too. They do things like have sex with someone, then regret it, then report it to the police as rape, so they can save face with their friends.

Years ago, I lived in the same upscale apartment complex in which DeAnza (a Junior College without dorms) housed their football players. They were not good boys.
agreed..I’m going to withhold judgement until more info comes in..
Good idea to wait a little and see how much there is there. I noticed that the Mercury just lowered the Sunday paper price to $1. They’re confronting their mortality.
De Anza is a community college, most kids that attend community colleges live at home, since the college is in their own community, don’t they? Or do community colleges now recruit athletes?
Jeez, the first girl was a high school student, who was taken to the hospital after the party. The party wasn’t a team party, but at the house where two players lived, eight members of the team were at the party, as well as students from the general student population (and probably a few non-students, as well). All eight were suspended and the team’s games cancelled for this week, as well as practices, even though only eight members were present.
I suspect this is a LOT more common with “Thugball” players, than with Lacrosse players....
It probably doesn’t make much difference in the age of players either — high school, college or professional level..
Thugball has earned a pretty shabby reputation the hard war — they worked on it.
Any female attending a Thugball event or party without a “bodyguard” probably doesn’t have an I.Q. above room temperature....
Semper Fi
Frightening? Re-assign this one immediately!
You said — “Could boys possibly be THIS STUPID?”
Well, yes..., but it’s not considered stupid, by that “crowd” — the 13-18 year-old crowd and what’s going on with the young and later teens these days. This *is* the “culture” that is being inculcated from even the age of 13 years old, in school.
See a series of posts that I did on this thread —

It’s a really sorry state of affairs for our up and coming generation, to see them getting so perverted and thinking it’s not anything other than having some fun. They’re actually “preying” on one another. The biggest predators for the young teens — are the young teens themselves...
