MISSOULA — University of Montana senior Justin Strong has been suspended for two games for violating the student-athlete code of conduct, the university athletic department announced in a press release on Wednesday.

Strong, a free safety who leads the Griz with three interceptions this season, was arrested for felony assault over the weekend in Washington following a house party. No charges have been filed and Strong was at practice on Wednesday.

Strong will once again be eligible to compete in the Nov. 11 game against Northern Colorado.
