INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Butler's leading scorer Rotnei Clarke will be back in action this weekend. The school has cleared him to resume game action against Temple on Saturday, Jan. 26.

“Rotnei has remained symptom free, and he’s gone through full-contact practice with the team,” said Butler Head Athletic Trainer Ryan Galloy. “As long as there are no unexpected changes, he’s cleared to begin playing in games.”

Clarke suffered a severe neck sprain against Dayton, after colliding with a padded basket stand.
