SUMMARY: U.S. Rowing stripped honors from Ted Nash, a two-time Olympic medalist and nine-time Olympic coach, after credible allegations of sexual abuse from over 50 years ago surfaced.

The report was released by the federation, detailing the grooming and abuse that Nash subjected the girl to. Jennifer Fox, the victim, documented her experience in a 2018 movie and later revealed Nash's identity in a New York Times story.
