Eastern Washington loses their leading scorer Justin Crosgile

A tough season for Eastern Washington got even tougher on Friday, as their leading scorer Justin Crogile left the team.
Originally reported as a dismissal, it turns out that Crogile a redshirt junior that had transferred to EWU from St. Joseph?s, was simply looking to get closer to home and his three-year old son.
Crosgile [...] cited a ?need to be closer to home? for his surprise decision to leave the squad earlier this week.
?It?s been a great experience at Eastern Washington, and I have nothing against the coaches or players here,? Crosgile said in a telephone interview Friday night.
Crosgile said he plans to return to his native New Jersey to be near his mother and his 3-year-old son.
Crosgile had been averaging 14.7 points, 5.5 assists in more than 36 minutes per game, all of which were team-highs. EWU is currently 3-11 on the season and 1-3 in Big Sky play, with that one win coming against fellow bottom-feeder Idaho State.
It?s tough to be on the other side of the country from your family, but doing so while playing losing basketball is just that much more difficult.

Shit, really? Just bought portland state ML....I hope I don't get the world's worst middle. :facepalm:
I tried to bold the date on the article but its still hard to notice. He left the team on the 7th this is no late info.
It cost me money, but it is my fault for the knee jerk reaction. I should have realized something wasn't up when the line stayed the same. I still won a little in the end. No worries. You weren't trying to sabotage.
