Ore. State player gets 4 games for tripping ref

In light of his egregious and intentional act of tripping an official during Sunday night's loss at Utah, Jarmal Reid has been suspended at least four games by Oregon State coach Wayne Tinkle.

The school announced the punishment on Monday afternoon.

"We are obviously very disappointed and apologize to everyone involved," Tinkle said. "Our university and our program do not condone this type of conduct on or off the court. We acted swiftly and severely, but also fairly with the understanding that we are dealing with a 22-year-old young man that we need to help grow through this tough situation.
