MARQUETTE, MI-- A Marquette man accused of embezzling from the Marquette Mutineers hockey team has been given a delay of sentence.

Brice Burge, 29, was charged with two counts of embezzlement from a non-profit or charitable organization. He pleaded no contest in December to use of a financial transaction device to fraudulently withdraw money, less than $1,000.

Last week Burge was given a 12-month delay of sentence and ordered to pay more than $5,000 in restitution.
