LOS ANGELES (AP) Southern California kicker Matt Boermeester is no longer on the Trojans' roster after hitting the winning field goal in the Rose Bowl last January.

Boermeester was suspended from the team in February after an undisclosed ''student code of conduct issue.'' The school has released no details of Boermeester's troubles.
