MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) Kansas State junior center Freddy Asprilla has left the team.

Coach Frank Martin announced the departure in a statement before Saturday's home game against Texas Tech.

Martin called it a "mutual decision" and said he expects Asprilla to "explore professional playing opportunities in his home country."

He is a native of Villavicencio, Colombia.
