She told the court Monday that she went on “autopilot” while in the hotel room, and felt that she had to go along with what the men in the room wanted her to do.
Michael McLeod, Carter Hart, Alex Formenton, Dillon Dube and Callan Foote have all pleaded not guilty to sexual assault. McLeod has also pleaded not guilty to an additional charge of being a party to the offence of sexual assault.
Court has heard the five accused and many of their teammates were in town for a few days in June 2018 to attend events marking their championship win.
The complainant, who was 20 at the time, cannot be identified due to a standard publication ban.
