Loyola Marymount has dismissed second-leading scorer and rebounder Vernon Teel.

The senior guard received all-West Coast Conference honorable mention recognition earlier in the week and averaged 12.8 points and 5.7 rebounds per game this season.

"This was an internal decision that we felt was best for our team and our program," Loyola Marymount coach Max Good said in a statement. "This was strictly based on internal issues and was not attributed to behavior in or around the WCC tournament."
