WASHINGTON (AP) — Georgetown forward Greg Whittington has been declared academically ineligible.

“Greg will not participate in competition until further notice,” Georgetown coach John Thompson III said in a statement.

Whittington ranks second on the team in points (12.1) and rebounds (7.0) per game.
