LAFAYETTE — The Louisiana-Lafayette men’s basketball team announced Monday that junior forward Jay Hedgeman has been suspended for the rest of the season for conduct detrimental to the team.
A spokesman said the team would not offer further comment on the nature of the suspension.
Coach Bob Marlin said he made his team aware of the news before Saturday’s game against Texas State, which the Ragin’ Cajuns lost 61-57.
“We met Saturday morning about it,” Marlin said. “They’re familiar with what’s going on. I think it may have hurt us a little bit in the first half (against Texas State), just the getting used to the situation.
