MASSAPEQUA, New York (AP) -- A school district has benched two coaches and more than a dozen high school baseball players as it investigates whether a parent took the athletes to a strip club during the team's spring break trip to Florida.

The coaches and players from Massapequa High School on Long Island will remain off the team until the investigation is complete, said Robert Schilling, the district's executive director for administration and human resources.

The school district got an anonymous phone call last weekend about possible conduct violations during the school-sanctioned trip to Cocoa Beach, Florida, Schilling said Thursday.

Assistant coach Tom Sheedy said 15 players were involved, but that coaches didn't hear about it until two days later.

"A parent escorted a group of players into the club," Sheedy said. "This parent was buying drinks and who knows what else."

The parent was not identified.

It was probably an honest mistake, the parent and teachers thinking that it was a "hot rod" club and their were just painting pin-stripes on cars or something. Easy mistake to make. And, of course, once you were in, you wouldn't want to lose the cover charge. And the drinks, they probably just thought of them as the liquid equivalent of candy cigarettes.
