Fencing club prepares for tournament

·

The average student at IU has limited knowledge about the ancient sport of fencing. While it has been a pastime for centuries in countries like France and Russia, the same level of mainstream interest in fencing has never quite materialized in the U.S.

Badgers face Hoosiers on the bubble in key Big Ten match

·

Entering the critical back stretch of its season, the IU women’s basketball team will travel to Wisconsin today looking to sweep the Badgers for the first time since 2003. The Hoosiers (15-11, 8-6) currently reside at the edge of the bubble for the NCAA Tournament, and wins in all four remaining games would be a big step toward getting into the field.
