Mountain West suspends two players
The Mountain West Conference has suspended two basketball players involved in a scrum in the Colorado State-Air Force game Saturday night. Air Force freshman guard Matt Mooney and Colorado State senior forward J.J. Avila were both issued one-game suspensions Sunday. Mooney punched Avila in the back after Avila grabbed an Air Force player around the neck after falling to the floor during their game won by Colorado State 82-87. Mooney will miss Air Force’s game at New Mexico on Wednesday and Avila will miss CSU’s game at home against Nevada.
