Ohio State player arrested for soliciting

By Associated Press

COLUMBUS: Ohio State's third-team quarterback and fourth-leading rusher has been accused of soliciting a prostitute, authorities said Tuesday.

Antonio Henton, a redshirt freshman, completed a pass in four attempts for 20 yards and also ran for 31 yards on seven carries in the eighth-ranked Buckeyes' 58-7 win over Northwestern on Saturday.

Columbus police arrested him at 8:30 p.m. Monday south of campus.

Henton, 20, entered a not guilty plea this morning in Franklin County Municipal Court to the misdemeanor charge. Lara Baker, chief prosecutor in the city's attorney's office, said the penalty carries a maximum six months in jail and a $1,000 fine, but generally results in a small fine.

Henton, 6-foot-2 and 210 pounds, is from Fort Valley, Ga. He fought for the starting quarterback job last spring but had less game experience than starter Todd Boeckman and backup Rob Schoenhoft. Henton is in the mold of last year's starter, Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith mobile and able to escape pressure, with a strong arm.

In the Buckeyes' 38-6 win over Youngstown State in the season opener, he threw a 37-yard touchdown pass to freshman receiver Taurian Washington.

On the season, Henton is 3-for-6 passing for 57 yards with the one touchdown and no interceptions. He is the Buckeyes' fourth-leading rusher with 41 yards on nine carries.

Ohio State officials did not return phone calls regarding Henton's status for Saturday's game at Minnesota.

There was no phone listing at the address for Henton in suburban Hilliard provided in court records, which also did not list an attorney. A message seeking comment was sent to Henton's e-mail address found in Ohio State's online student directory.
