[July 23, 2012]  STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) -- Closing arguments are set in the trial of a suspended Oklahoma State basketball player charged with sexually assaulting two women at a house party.

Attorneys are scheduled to make their arguments Monday morning in the trial of Darrell (duh-RELL) Williams.

Williams is charged with four counts of rape by instrumentation and one count of sexual assault stemming from a party in December 2010.

Two women testified that Williams sexually assaulted them at the party. Both said they identified Williams as their attacker after police showed them a photo of the Cowboys basketball team.

Williams' attorneys tried to cast doubt that Williams was the perpetrator. Witnesses testified that several players at the party wore similar Oklahoma State warmup suits and attorneys claim that could have led to a misidentification.
