Mo’ne Davis Asks Bloomsburg University To Reinstate Player Who Bashed Her On Twitter

Little League Baseball sensation Mo’ne Davis continues to impress. Davis recently released her first book, “Remember My Name,” and while on spring break, she’s been on a mini-press tour. During a recent ESPN appearance, Davis was asked her thoughts about Bloomsberg University baseball player, Joey Casselberry, who was dismissed from his team after a Tweet he posted about Davis went viral.

“Disney is making a movie about Mo’ne Davis? WHAT A JOKE. That s*ut got rocked by Nevada.”

 

Bloomsburg University acted swiftly, dismissing Casselberry from the baseball team. The University stated that his offensive tweet violated the athletic department’s social media policy.

Davis has a big heart, she reportedly reached out to Bloomberg’s president, David L. Soltz to ask that Casselberry be reinstated. During her “Sports Center” appearance, Davis said “everyone deserves a second chance.”

While Bloomsburg says they respect Davis’ opinion and praise her for being incredibly mature about the situation — the school will NOT reinstate the baseball player … saying, “Right now we’re standing firm.”

Mo’Ne seems to have a great support system around her.
