The IU Athletics Department announced today that this year's Hoosier Hysteria will include not only the men's and women's basketball teams, but the IU volleyball program.

Straying farther and farther away from Midnight Madness, the Hoosiers will begin their annual event when the Hoosier volleyball team takes on Ohio State at 7 p.m. Following the match, both the men's and women's basketball teams will hold autograph sessions for fans before taking the floor for their first official practice of the year.

"Our players and coaches are really looking forward to this event," IU coach Tom Crean said in a press release. "It will be a great way for the fans to get to know us and for our kids to understand just how important Indiana basketball is to those who support our program. Our hope is to have as many former players back as possible to also be a part of this special night."

Doors will open at 5 p.m. The cost of admission is three canned goods or a cash donation to benefit the Hoosier Hills Food Bank.
