Binghamton University basketball player Emanuel "Tiki" Mayben pleaded not guilty at his arraignment to possessing and selling cocaine.
Mayben, who led Binghamton last year to its first appearance in the NCAA basketball tournament, was arrested Wednesday night in his hometown of Troy, N.Y.
Greg Cholakis, Mayben’s lawyer, said his client was released on $20,000 bail.
Mayben set a school single-season record for assists last year. He was named to the America East Conference All-Tournament team in March and was a second-team All-Conference selection.
Army fires head coach
Army fired men’s basketball coach Jim Crews after seven losing seasons.
Crews took the Knights to the Patriot League tournament semifinals the past three seasons, but his best overall record was 15-16 in 2006-07. Army went 11-19 last season.
In seven years, Crews had a record of 60-139, a .302 winning percentage.
