NCAA Adds Two Years to Minnesota Probation; Cuts One Scholarship
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - The NCAA on Tuesday extended Minnesota's four-year
probation by two years and cut one women's basketball scholarship for
violations under former coach Cheryl Littlejohn. But the women's program escaped the "death penalty," a two-year shutdown
that could have been imposed under NCAA rules for repeat violators. The original probation was imposed after academic cheating was uncovered in
the men's program in 1999, when a former tutor came forward to say she had done
coursework for players. Former men's coach Clem Haskins was forced out in the
scandal.
