Gary Hahn, Wolfpack Sports Network play-by-play announcer, is suspended indefinitely after making a comment about "illegal aliens in El Paso" during the radio broadcast of the Duke's Mayo Bowl on Friday afternoon.

North Carolina State lost in that game to Maryland, 16-12.

Hahn made the comment while giving the score update for the Sun Bowl, which is played in El Paso and featured Pitt and UCLA.

Hahn is an employee of Learfield, which produces games for NC State and other universities.
