Key suspensions deplete
Pirates' ranks
The depth-challenged East Carolina
basketball team has gotten even thinner with a pair of player suspensions
announced on Monday by first-year coach Ricky Stokes.
Junior guard Japhet McNeil and
sophomore forward Jonathan Hart have been suspended indefinitely for conduct
detrimental to the team. Neither will play in Saturday's game against UAB in
Birmingham, according to an ECU release.
McNeil leads Conference USA in assists
with 6.7 per game and ranked fifth in the latest NCAA statistics published
on January 31. He has distributed 133 assists this season, which is an ECU
single season record. McNeil had started 15 games this season, while
averaging 4.9 points in 27 minutes per game.
Hart was averaging 4.2 points and 3.3
rebounds in 17 minutes of action per game this season. He had started each
of the past three games.
ACC officiating crew benched for botched call
Atlantic Coast Conference Coordinator
of Men's Basketball Officials John Clougherty on Monday announced the
suspension of the officiating crew that worked Saturday's Florida State at
Duke men's basketball game.
A technical foul that was called on
Florida State's Alexander Johnson in the second half of play should not have
been assessed. The technical foul was Johnson's fifth foul and resulted in
his disqualification from the contest.
Because of the incorrect assessment and
handling of the dead ball technical foul situation, the officials that
worked the contest will each be suspended for their next game. The suspended
crew includes Mike Eades, Ray Natili and Ed Corbett.
