Claims drug usage and other issues related to the student; also claims President Wills snubbed her son on graduation stage
Heather Tippett, the mother of a Yavapai Community College athlete who was graduating, charged that the College recruited a player via a scholarship who became involved in drug usage and other issues. She alleged that the recruit should never have been allowed to join the student athletes at the College.
She also alleged that President Penelope Wills ignored her son during graduation ceremonies implying that he was being publicly humiliated by the president because of his alleged whistle-blowing. The mother asked that the Board “take a look at” the Prescott graduation ceremony on video to verify her claim.
