Penn State Player Stanley Pringle Charged With Masturbating in Library

One of the odder things about the sports blogosphere is how much time has been spent discussing masturbating in libraries. It all started when Deadspin made Carl Monday a household name, at least if you're in a household where sports blogs are read, and now we've got another entrant.

Penn State basketball player Stanley Pringle has been charged in an incident involving public masturbation that occurred last Thursday in a campus library. The Penn State student newspaper reports:

Police said Pringle, the team's point guard, sat behind the victim in the stacks section of the library, attempted to start a conversation with the woman and began masturbating. Police have filed charges of public lewdness and disorderly conduct against him in connection to the incident, but Centre County District Judge Jonathan Grine, who is out of the office, was unable to sign the criminal complaint as of 2 p.m. today. Without the signed complaint, Pringle cannot be formally arrested.

Penn State's athletic spokesman confirmed the charges but said Pringle's status with the basketball team remains unchanged.
