Charges Dropped Against Spartan Recruit: Former San Jose State recruit Lorenzo Keeler had statutory rape charges against him dropped on Tuesday in a Massachusetts court. Keeler, along with four other Winchendon School players, were accused of raping a 15-year-old girl in October of 2004. Charges in the incident were not filed until spring, after the basketball season and after the Spartans had offered a scholarship. San Jose State had his scholarship offer revoked after the arraignment in mid-June, due to the anticipated court commitments that Keeler, a 6-2 guard, was expected to face. Keeler, who was recruited by Creighton, Siena, and Kent State, is expected to attend a junior college this season. [8/25/05]
