Court Appealed: United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio at Columbus

DAVIS, Circuit Judge. Eszter Pryor brings this Title IX action against The Ohio State University (“OSU”) for allegedly failing to protect her from the sexual abuse and sexual assault committed by her diving coach when she was a minor competing for the Ohio State Diving Club. The district court dismissed her claim as time barred. But Pryor contends that the court applied the wrong statute of limitations and that her claim should not have been dismissed. Because the district court applied the correct limitations period, and Pryor filed her complaint beyond the applicable two-year window for such actions, we affirm.
