St. John's Chris Ledlum and Jordan Dingle suing NCAA for denying them 2024
NEW YORK (AP) — St. John’s basketball players Chris Ledlum and Jordan Dingle have filed a lawsuit against the NCAA for denying their request for an eligibility waiver that would give them one more season of competition with the Red Storm or another team.
The lawsuit, filed last Friday in Queens (New York) Supreme Court, contends the NCAA unfairly denied the players their fifth years of eligibility under the COVID-19 waiver granted to athletes whose 2019-20 seasons were disrupted by the pandemic.
Ledlum (Harvard) and Dingle (Penn) transferred to St. John’s from Ivy League schools before the 2023-24 season. The NCAA’s COVID-19 exemption essentially replaces the 2019-20 season, but Ledlum and Dingle also lost the 2020-21 season because the Ivy League opted to have no sports competition that academic year.
The players allege “inequitable application” of the COVID waiver and that the denial of an exemption for 2024-25 in their cases “cannot withstand analysis under the rule of reason.”
