Former SFSU Wrestling Coach Files Age Discrimination Lawsuit
San Francisco State University is reportedly denying allegations of age discrimination in the recent firing of the school’s wrestling coach. Over the summer, the school told former coach Lars Jensen his contract would not be renewed. The San Francisco Examiner reported that a 27-year-old coach filled the position. An attorney for Jensen filed a claim last month saying the school let Jensen go in part because he did not bring in enough minority athletes. The school says several reasons factored into Jensen’s firing, and discrimination did not play a role.
