Charges against five Yale student-athletes, stemming from an Oct. 1 incident outside a downtown market, have been dismissed.

Football players Mike McLeod and Matt Polhemus and hockey players Ben Mills, Matt Nelson and Alec Richards were all in Superior Court in New Haven Friday to face charges stemming from an altercation in front of Gourmet Heaven on Broadway on Oct. 1.

is letting them off a good or bad call?

What I heard was that somebody hit one of the hockey players from behind(for some unknown reason). He turned around and mistook McLeod for the person who smacked him. McLeod just defended himself and Polhemus, who had not been there when the altercation started, came to the defense of his teammate when he walked in.

I still have some question about who exactly smacked the hockey player and why and what happened to that person, but I'm sure they will all keep their mouths shut for a while.
