OSU's Washington out of Fiesta Bowl after arrest

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The collegiate career of Adolphus Washington is over at Ohio State in the wake of his solicitation charges on Wednesday.

A school spokesman confirmed that the senior defensive tackle, who was charged late Wednesday night by Columbus police with a first-degree misdemeanor and is scheduled for a court appearance Dec. 17, has been suspended for the BattleFrog Fiesta Bowl and won't play again for the Buckeyes.

Citing a violation of team policy, Ohio State coach Urban Meyer announced the discipline Friday morning after returning from a recruiting trip.
