The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete Jake Glass after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substances Cocaine and Cannabis.
After notification a provisional suspension was ordered. The Athlete failed to respond to the CCES communication. As a result the SDRCC rendered a decision based on the written submissions.
The Arbitrator holds that the Athlete was given every opportunity to participate in a hearing. The Arbitrator finds that the Athlete has not provided any evidence to support the finding of an exceptional circumstance.
Therefore the SDRCC decides on 20 January 2011 to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. 15 October 2010.
