RICHMOND, Ky. (AP) — Eastern Kentucky athletic director Steve Lochmueller has suspended players involved in a January bar fight with players from the University of Kentucky that left an EKU player injured.
The release on Thursday did not specify which players were disciplined from the Jan. 25 incident at Jerzee's, near EKU's Richmond campus, but said their futures at the school will be determined by its Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities.
Lochmueller said in the statement that the school holds students to a high standard and added, "this type of behavior will not be tolerated."
Jeff Scurry, the father of sophomore offensive lineman Colton Scurry, told the Courier-Journal in Louisville that his son was injured in the brawl.
A Madison County grand jury last week declined to indict anyone involved in the fight.
