WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Wake Forest senior center Ty Walker has been suspended for the remainder of the season due to a violation of departmental policy regarding student-athletes, announced head coach Jeff Bzdelik on Friday.

"Unfortunately it has become necessary to suspend Ty Walker for the conclusion of the season," said Bzdelik. "He will finish up classes this semester and is on target to graduate in May."

Walker played in 20 games with 13 starts for the Demon Deacons in 2011-12. He averaged 4.2 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game. Walker sat out the first nine games of the season due to a violation of the Wake Forest University student code of conduct.
