Female javelin coach, 26, accused of having sex with a 17-year-old boy

A 26-year-old javelin coach that is accused of having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old male student at a school in Pennsylvania has been charged with institutional sexual assault and sexual assault by a sports official.

Hannah Marth reportedly texted the teen and invited him to her residence on May 22, 2021, at about 2am and initiated sexual contact, the Northampton County District Attorney's office said in a release.
Marth, who is a teacher in the Easton Area School District, confessed to having romantic involvement with the teen in May 2021. The teen allegedly told police he and Marth were in a relationship that lasted until October 2022.
'A trusted relationship between a student athlete, an athlete's parent, and a coach can be a vulnerable one,' District Attorney Terry Houck told the Morning Call.
'An abuse of that relationship shows a coach's blatant disregard for the well-being of those she or he coached, and above all, the law. This defendant defied that trust when she committed this alleged crime against the victim.'

Marth had been a standout athlete and a member of the track and field team when she attended Northampton. She was arraigned Thursday afternoon before being freed on a $75,000 unsecured bail.

In a statement, Superintendent David Piperato told the outlet that the district was informed of the arrest by the district attorney's office.
