    Wichita State's medical staff denied medical clearance to freshman D.J. Bowles after he had a defibrillator implanted, but the school will honor his four-year scholarship, it announced Friday night.

    The decision was made by the WSU-ICAA medical staff because of Bowles' heart condition. Bowles collapsed 3 minutes, 30 seconds into a Sept. 3 practice at Wichita State. Trainer Todd ***an and the athletic staff used an automated external defibrillator to save Bowles' life before emergency medical personnel arrived and he was rushed to a local hospital.
