The KW Titans basketball team has lost its third player this week - guard Ricky Tarrant.

Tarrant left the organization "to pursue a basketball contract overseas," according to a release.

The move was effective immediately.

It comes after two players were cut from the team Tuesday after a fight in Saint John, N.B.

Power forward Kevin Foster and point guard Tramique Sutherland were suspended after getting into a pushing match with Saint John Riptide players on Feb. 16.

Many players were wearing pink T-shirts at the event, promoting anti-bullying awareness.

A statement from the team called it an "unfortunate incident."
