The way I see it:
- "An athletic locker room as a player's safe haven" has no more validity than every other space in a school that warrants the most vigilant of adult supervision.
- The line between hazing and bullying is so variable, vague and subject to personal interpretation that the 2 are realistically indistinguishable therefore both inappropriate.
- If a particular team "tradition" can not stand up to adult scrutiny, it has no place in the school.
