Lacrosse player receives medal

MORRIS TOWNSHIP, N.J. – Less than two weeks after sexual offense charges were dropped against him and two Duke lacrosse teammates, Reade Seligmann received a medal from the exclusive prep school where he graduated in 2004.

Seligmann was presented with the Delbarton Medal, the highest honor from the all-boys Delbarton School.

The school’s headmaster, the Rev. Luke L. Travers, praised Seligmann for demonstrating “courage, nobility, integrity and charity” during the year since the charges were brought.

“You gave us a model of how to handle the pressures that we all experience,” Travers said, according to the school’s Web site.

School spokeswoman Jessica Fiddes said the Delbarton Medal is given to several graduating seniors at each year, but occasionally it is given to others.
