SUMMIT, N.J. (CBSNewYork) — Players from a New Jersey high school football team with a largely African-American makeup said members of another team taunted them racially before a game this past weekend.

As CBS 2’s Christine Sloan reported, the players said the harassment involved the use of bananas by the opposing Summit High School team as a racially offensive joke.

“It was in the door and you could see through the door, because it didn’t have — no doorknobs – so you could see right through the hole,” said North Plainfield High School football player Anthony Lafond. “And they put the banana right through there.”
