A Mason High School basketball coach was charged today in connection with a “beer pong” party at his home in January.
Michael J. Crotty – a longtime assistant coach for the boys basketball program at Mason – was charged with “knowingly allowing underage persons to remain at his residence while possessing or consuming alcohol,” according to charges filed this afternoon by Mason Police.
The party, which took place in January, included 19-year-olds who had graduated from Mason High School the previous year.
Crotty was not immediately available for comment.
Crotty was photographed at the party playing a drinking game called “beer pong” with the teenagers.
He will be summoned to Mason Municipal Court, said police, and will be arraigned on the charge, which is a first degree misdemeanor and could result in a six-month jail sentence if he is convicted.
The Enquirer will update this story as more information becomes available.
