Why are rhamel and shamel bratton suspended

According to the Washington Post, sources close to the situation say that their teammates have voted to suspend Shamel for the rest of the season, and to suspend Rhamel indefinitely. Shamel has already been suspended twice this season, while Rhamel was suspended once. According to the source, both brothers had been suspended during the Stony Brook game for a violation of the team's very strict alcohol policies. Two words for you…Paul Gait.

Even though Paul Gait was just as dominant, even more so at times. Most people will tell you that Gait Lacrosse Company is owned by Gary, but its actually Paul who is the one running it. Gary works for STX. Paul also had a dominating perfomance as a Long Island Lizard in win the first Major League Lacrosse Championship scoring 7 goals on just as many shots. This was in addition to being a perennial all pro.

The same thing is already happening to Rhamel. He was initially given the shaft for the U team USA team until an injury to another player opened up a spot on the roster, and commentators during televised games give his brother Shamel much more exposure.

Later that evening, it was revealed that Rhamel had been suspended indefinitely for an unspecified violation of team rules. Shamel already had served two one-game suspensions for violating team rules.

He would not disclose the infractions of either player. Briedis said Rhamel's status for the postseason is "at the discretion of the coaching staff.

Starsia said both had committed a "little violation'' and would return the following week. Shamel then was suspended before a game against Maryland on April 2. And while he was able to turn heads and had multiple flashes of greatness during his freshman season, he never saw the field as a starter. But the expectations were certainly high for his sophomore season in Bratton lived up to those expectations his sophomore year.

The Huntington, N. The season is where the legend of Shamel Bratton was born. Every time that you turned on a Virginia lacrosse game you knew that you were going to see not only one of the best offenses in the nation, but one of the most electrifying players in the game. And every time that number one had the ball in his stick, something magical was surely going to happen.
