Two Longwood University men’s basketball players — one who was exonerated from a charge of assault and battery last week — have been suspended from the team.

According to Longwood Athletics spokesman Chris Cook, Shaquille Johnson and Jason Pimentel have been removed indefinitely “from the program for conduct unbecoming of a Longwood student-athlete related to an incident earlier this week.”

“Shaquille and Jason have not met the standards Longwood expects from its student-athletes,” said Troy Austin, Longwood’s director of athletics. “They will be removed from team activities while we review this matter,” he said.

The assault and battery charge against Pimentel stemmed from a November incident involving another student, according to Prince Edward County Commonwealth’s Attorney James Ennis.

Both Johnson and Pimentel are seniors at Longwood, according to the Longwood Athletics website. Pimentel is listed a forward and Johnson is listed a guard and a forward.
