An up-and-coming soccer star flooded with top-notch scholarship offers left the sport for good after he allegedly endured hazing from teammates so pervasive and cruel that he tried to end his life, according to a bombshell $100 million lawsuit. Jeff Dewsnup, now 22, was just 17 when he played goalkeeper for Real Salt Lake in the United Soccer League, and regularly faced puerile taunts from his adult team members, who ridiculed the size of his penis, waved their genitals at him and pelted his rear-end with soccer balls, the suit alleges. Despite being courted with scholarship offers from elite schools like Stanford, Columbia, Princeton and Wake Forest, and interest from pro teams like Fulham, Crystal Palace and PSV Eindhoven, the alleged abuse got so bad he quit the sport he loved in April 2022.
