SAN DIEGO (Reuters) – Ten people, including a former assistant coach and two former basketball players at the University of San Diego, have been indicted in connection with a scheme to fix games, federal prosecutors said on Monday.

The defendants were charged in the federal grand jury indictment, unsealed on Monday, with scheming to fix USD basketball games by bribing players and then betting on the games in Las Vegas.

All 10 defendants were charged with conspiracy to commit sports bribery, conduct an illegal gambling business and distribute marijuana.
