BATON ROUGE - A Houston jury found former Southern University Athletic Director Greg LaFleur not guilty of soliciting sex from an undercover police ofcer posing as a prostitute. LaFleur's attorney Jed Silverman said a six-person jury listened to testimony from prosecutors and Greg LaFleur before acquitting LaFleur after deliberating for 34 minutes. "This undercover police ofcer was trying to meet a quota and completely jumped the gun and tried to catch Greg in a gotcha moment when Greg never made an agreement with Greg LaFleur anybody," Silverman said. Silverman said LaFleur plans to pursue a lawsuit against Southern University and, "It's just our wish that before Southern University had terminated [LaFleur], they had done a thorough investigation and afforded Greg the same presumption of innocence that everybody is afforded here in the United States of America." A spokesperson for Southern University said, "we have no comment." In NCAA Div. II basketball stats, Johnson C. Smith junior guard Trevin Parks (23.9), the leading scorer in the black college ranks (See STAT CORNER), is fourth while Benedict junior center Marcus Goode, the leading black college rebounder, is sixth in scoring (22.8) and third in rebounding (11.5). Goode is tied for tenth in Div. II with eight double-doubles. Nigel Munson of UDC and West Virginia State's Delrico Hines are tied for sixth in Div. II in assists at 6.2 per game. On the Div. I level, Kendall Gray, a 6-10 freshman at Delaware State is tied for eighth in the nation in blocks at 3.4 per game. MEAC Preseason Player of the Year, 6-10 senior center Kyle O'Quinn of Norfolk State, is tied for third in the nation with 13 double-doubles in 20 games. Six-ve senior forward Dominique Sutton of N.C. Central (59.2%) and 6-7 forward Rashad Hassan of Savannah State (59.1%) are 10th and 11th in eld goal percentage. Delaware State senior guard Jay Threatt is fourth in
