LUBBOCK, Texas - Texas Tech head women's basketball coach Marsha Sharp has indefinitely suspended junior forward Plenette Pierson effective immediately following the Lady Raiders' loss at New Mexico Friday night.

"Sometimes you have to make decisions that are best for your entire team, " said Sharp. "And I feel that this is the best thing at this time for the Lady Raider program."

Sharp has always had a policy not to discuss personnel decisions and will not comment on this issue any further.
