Among the allegations were claims that Ludwigsen made sexually explicit comments and touched them inappropriately, including licking their ears, directing them to sit on his lap, lying on top of them, kissing their lips and faces, and punching one of them in the breasts for perceived batting errors.
The suits alleged that Ludwigsen organized an underage drinking outing in which he directed players to wear cocktail dresses and dance with male strangers. They said he also offered to assist players in gaining employment in the adult entertainment industry and brought porn star Allie Haze to a practice for "life counseling sessions."
The suits also allege that Ludwigsen was the subject of a similar criminal investigation in
California and that Nyack was negligent in hiring him.
