BRIDGEPORT, Conn. — Two former Sacred Heart University football players have filed a lawsuit against the school and a woman who made false rape claims against them in 2016. Connecticut court records show Dhameer Bradley and Malik St. Hilaire on Oct. 10 sued Nikki Yovino, of South Setauket, New York, on allegations including slander and infliction of emotional distress. Yovino was sentenced in August to a year in prison after pleading guilty to falsely reporting an incident and interfering with police. Bradley and St. Hilaire said they and Yovino had consensual sex at an off-campus party. Yovino’s lawyer didn’t immediately return a message.
