NEWS & NOTES

The ACC announced Monday that the officiating crew that worked Saturday's Florida State-Duke basketball game has been suspended. The league stated that the technical foul called on FSU's Alexander Johnson in the second half should not have occurred. Due to the incorrect assessment and their handling of the dead ball technical foul, the officials will be suspended for their next game.

Seven of Boston College's nine ACC games have been decided by four points or less. The Eagles' four conference losses have all been by a margin of just two points.

J.J. Redick needs 37 points to move past former Blue Devil Christian Laettner into fifth place on the ACC's all-time scoring list. Redick, currently averaging 28.1 ppg, needs to average 20.4 points per game for the remainder of the season to pass Wake Forest's Dickie Hemric and become of the conference's career scoring leader. Against FSU, he became Cameron Indoor Stadium's men's all-time leading scorer.
