Minnesotas Reggie Lynch wont play while appealing finding of alleged s.exual misconduct.
Minnesota center Reggie Lynch has been suspended from playing for the school's the basketball team due to an alleged violation of the school's sexual misconduct policy
An investigation by the university's Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Office was launched after an accusation came last fall from a woman who said the Gophers center assaulted her on April 28, 2016, in his dorm room.
The office determined Lynch should be suspended from campus until Aug. 1, 2020. Lynch reportedly had decided to appeal by requesting a hearing by the Student Sexual Misconduct Subcommittee, which would determine its own decision. Without an appeal, the ban stands.
Lynch will remain enrolled in school and practicing and training with the Gophers until the process is completed.
