BOWLING GREEN, Ohio (AP) - Bowling Green men's basketball coach Louis Orr says he's accepted apologies from two boys who scribbled racist graffiti on a sidewalk in front of his house.
A judge ordered the two teens to perform community service and put them on probation Friday after finding them delinquent of criminal mischief.
Authorities say the boys wrote "white power" and drew a swastika with chalk in front of the black coach's house last October.
Orr recently met with both of them. He tells The Blade newspaper in Toledo (http://bit.ly/XMP1Jy ) that he hopes the boys will learn from what happened.
He says young people don't always understand the consequences of their actions.
Orr has been Bowling Green's coach since 2007. His son Chauncey is a starter on this year's team.
