UW-Stout to begin drug testing of student athletes

The University of Wisconsin-Stout announced Thursday that it will be requiring its athletes to submit to random drug testing. This decision comes in response to the drug-related arrests of two football players, Luke Steffen and Nicholas OrRico, last December. Steffen, a senior linebacker for UW-Stout, was found with three bottles of liquid steroids in his home, and OrRico, a junior linebacker, was found with one.
