Compiled from staff reports

Rape charge filed against Navy football star
The quarterback who led Navy's football
team to a college bowl game victory last season has been charged with raping
a female midshipman on campus, according to the Baltimore Sun.
Lamar S. Owens, Jr., 22, a senior
midshipman, was charged Wednesday with rape, indecent assault and conduct
unbecoming an officer after an investigation by the Naval Criminal
Investigative Service.
A female midshipman was raped Jan. 29
in her room in Bancroft Hall, the sprawling dormitory in Annapolis that
houses all 4,000 midshipmen.
Owens is charged with rape, conduct
unbecoming an officer and indecent assault. He has been allowed to remain at
Bancroft Hall.
Finn finished
with Musketeers
Xavier University Head Coach Sean
Miller, a former N.C. State assistant, announced today that senior guard
Dedrick Finn has been dismissed from the basketball team, according to the
university's athletic website,
goxavier.com.
"Today it was brought to my attention
that Dedrick Finn has violated one of our program's cornerstone policies,"
said Miller. "Throughout his career we have tried to connect with Dedrick to
continue to develop him as a person and have pursued numerous channels to
see this through. Dedrick has been made well aware of the importance of
following rules and guidelines that all team members must abide by.
"The fact that he is at the end of his
senior year makes his recent actions even more disturbing. Dedrick is on
track to graduate in May and we will support his efforts in doing so
wholeheartedy. Our current basketball team will move forward with the
important and complete understanding that no one player is more important
than our program."
Finn played in 122 career games,
scoring 912 points and dishing off 481 assists. He had 102 career starts.
This season, he averaged 5.0 points and 4.0 assists.
