Judge Kimberly Dahlen signed a motion to drop the charges against Dyanna Pierre, a senior forward on the women's basketball team, and Andrea Estrada, a sophomore outside hitter for the volleyball team. The two were arrested Oct. 25 for allegedly scratching a car owned by Kris Grimes, a former SIU golfer.
They were charged with criminal damage to property less than $300 and resisting a peace officer.
Pierre was benched for the team's two exhibition games and the first regular season game against DePaul for violating team rules. This season she became SIU's all-time leading rebounder.
