Latoya Williams, Ashlie Billingslea, Sequoyah Griffin and Georgian Williams were suspended for violating team rules, Lane said. Latoya Williams and Billingslea were Chipola’s two leading scorers.

The quartet had a good practice Monday and are expected to be reinstated, Lane said.

“We could have used them,” he said. “We still had plenty of opportunities to win the game. I don’t know if we’ll ever see eye to eye on it.”

The Lady Commodores were ranked sixth, followed by Chipola at No. 7 and Pensacola at No. 8. Northwest Florida State is ranked 16th.

Men
Chipola remained on top of this week’s men’s NJCAA Top 25 after it stayed perfect in Panhandle Conference play.

The only other Panhandle team ranked is Northwest Florida State, which has lost three in a row and four of its five conference games. The voters must have missed that.

Ellis was dismissed from the team after last season by interim coach Dan Dakich. New coach Tom Crean upheld that decision Friday. Rumors have circulated that Ellis was not attending class.

Reason for Thomas’ dismissal were not given.

Indiana finished 25-8 last season and lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament. The Hoosiers finished the season in a state of mayhem after Kelvin Sampson resigned on Feb. 22 after the NCAA revealed a report that he committed five major infractions. Dakich took over and led IU to a 3-4 record including a loss in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament.
