IU Forward Hoetzel Released From Team

Last updated on Monday, March 30, 2015

(BLOOMINGTON) - Indiana University men’s basketball coach Tom Crean has announced that freshman forward Max Hoetzel has requested a release from his athletic scholarship to transfer to a program where he can compete for more playing time.

Hoetzel, a 6-8 forward from Calabassas, California, played in 31 games and averaged 7.7 minutes and 2.4 points per game.

"I loved my time here at Indiana and can't thank Coach Crean enough for this opportunity," said Hoetzel. "I want to find a school where I can have a bigger impact on the court. Hopefully, it will be somewhere my family can see me play more often."

He will continue to have use of the team's facilities and academic support during his remaining time at IU.
