The Dover Post has learned that Delaware State University women’s head basketball coach Tamika Louis is being investigated by the university after a letter containing numerous allegations was sent to the school’s president this week by a parent of one of the team’s players.

All of Louis’ duties have been reassigned during the investigation, according to the university officials.

“We are aware of the situation … and the president was made aware of it and now I’m aware of it and the investigation has already begun and we’ll see it to its proper end,” Carlos Holmes, a DSU spokesperson said Tuesday.

The investigation was launched after a lengthy letter was sent to DSU President Henry Lee Williams.

In the letter, which was shared with the Post on Monday, the parent, who later asked not to be identified, wrote, “I have great concern with some of the things that have been going on at DSU under the leadership of Coach Tamika Louis.”

The letter charges that Louis uses “harassment, intimidation, and threats to keep the players quiet about her dehumanizing behavior.”

In an email to the Post, the parent said she called the National Collegiate Athletic Association before she sent the letter to DSU, because the players “have evidence of NCAA violations.” She said the NCAA told her she needed to contact the school first.
