A basketball coach from an upstate New York high school was fired after cameras caught him violently yanking a player’s ponytail, following their game loss on the night of Friday, March 21.
A now-viral video captured Northville High School coach Jim Zullo, 81, who had reportedly been employed at the institute for decades, approaching team star player Hailey Monroe, who was seemingly the all-time leading scorer.
The student athlete was crying after the game — that she had fouled out of — when he grabbed her hair and aggressively pulled, before yelling at her.
