In a letter to parents, the school’s principal and athletic director, Dan McKeone, explained that two girls appear to be giving the Adolf Hitler-style salute while a third girls sits between them, giving a peace sign. According to reports, one team member has been nicknamed “Hitler.”

McKeone didn’t disclose the exact nature of the punishment.
