Menomonie football players suspended over banned supplement in energy drink

The Menomonie school district gave three-game suspensions to 10 players Tuesday, after school officials learned they consumed a dietary supplement containing a substance banned under Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association rules. The students didn’t know the product Cellucor C4 Extreme contained the banned substance synephrine, athletic director Bart Boettcher said.
