South Carolina ? Two military recruiters were demoted and fined because one had sex with a high school student and the other with the girl’s cheerleading coach, National Guard officials said Friday.

Sgt. 1st Class Thomas Fletcher and Sgt. Jeremy Pileggi took the military equivalent of a plea deal that also cost them their recruiting jobs. They were allowed to remain as part-time soldiers with the Army National Guard, spokesman Col. Pete Brooks said, and were fined the equivalent of two days’ pay.

Messages left at the men’s homes were not immediately returned.

Police said Fletcher, 29, had an affair with Ware Shoals High School cheerleading coach Jill Moore, who resigned in January after being charged with supplying alcohol and cigarettes to students and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

Moore, a married mother of two, took two cheerleaders to meet Pileggi at a motel, according to sheriff’s office reports.

Pileggi, 21, acknowledged having sex with a 16-year-old cheerleader last year, and one of the cheerleaders said she watched Moore and Fletcher have sex, police reports said.
