Two Falcon throwers cited for alcohol violations

February 12, 2013

BG track and field athletes freshman Shana Flanary and sophomore Brooke Pleger were cited early Sunday morning.

The two throwers were cited for underage possession of alcohol and open container of alcohol at 12:11 a.m. Sunday at Lot 2 downtown, which is behind The Stones Throw Pub.

Flanary was also cited for disorderly conduct/public urination.

Pleger is currently ranked third in the MAC and also ranked nationally in her categories, and has been a leader for the Falcons this season. She has taken first place in three out of five meets this year in the weight throw. Pleger took fifth at Akron and fourth at Grand Valley in the Big Meet.

Flanary also competes in the weight throw, but has only thrown in three meets this year. Her best finish was fifth at Eastern Michigan on Dec. 7.

Pleger attended her court appearance Tuesday and has an arraignment hearing Feb. 20.

The track and field team is on a break until Feb. 22 for the Mid-American Conference Indoor Championships.
