Ohio University's Director of Judiciaries needs to get some questions answered before deciding how to proceed with allegations of possible hazing against the men's club soccer team.

Dean of Students Ryan Lombardi says representatives from the team met with Judiciaries Director Chris Harris yesterday afternoon.

The team has been suspended from play and practice while an investigation is conducted.

Lombardi says Harris determined he needs to talk with several other individuals before making a decision about how to proceed.

An unnamed club member was admitted to a hospital Sept. 9.

He told a student manager in a residence hall that he remembered drinking nine shots of liquor and beer and interacting with police.

He reported that his next memory was being treated at a hospital for a gash on the back of his head.

Lombardi says the suspension will stay in place until a decision is made by University Judiciaries.

He says there is no date set for another meeting with club representatives.
