Ohio State has suspended sophomore center Kaleb Wesson for "a violation of Ohio State athletics department policy," coach Chris Holtmann announced Friday.

The Buckeyes will be without Wesson, the team's leading scorer, when Ohio State takes on No. 14 Purdue Saturday in West Lafayette. Holtmann did not provide a timetable for Wesson's return but did say that the suspension will not end the sophomore's season.

Wesson is averaging 14.6 points and 6.7 rebound per game.
