Michigan pulled out a close 4-3 victory with a win at the No. 6 singles position in a match that lasted four hours and 45 minutes.

By Chris Sauer · Thursday, April 27,2006 7:50 p.m.

Twenty-two strikeouts. Eleven innings. One run. After the IU softball team's game against instate rival Indiana State last night, these were all the numbers you needed to know. Thankfully for the Hoosiers, the one run belonged to them as they scored in the top of the eleventh inning to take the 1-0 victory. With the win, the Hoosiers move to 26-22-1 on the season.

Batty heads into final Big Ten tourney

By Jonathan Hines · Thursday, April 27,2006 12:43 a.m.

IU women's tennis team captain Sarah Batty has always been ahead of the game -- both in sports and her personal life. After moving from England to Florida to attend prep school at age 14, Batty graduated high school in two years and began her college tennis career at IU at just 17. Now at 20, the senior is facing what could possibly be her final weekend of collegiate tennis when the Hoosiers travel to Champaign, Ill., for the Big Ten Championships Friday. Batty is a senior leader on the team, anchored IU at the No. 1 singles spot all season and has been named to two All-Big Ten teams in her career.

Young not among Texans' top choices

By Alyson Brodsy and Kristie Rieken · Wednesday, April 26,2006 11:50 p.m.

HOUSTON -- Sorry, Vince, but you won't be playing for your hometown team. The Houston Texans will take Southern Cal running back Reggie Bush or North Carolina State defensive end Mario Williams with the first pick in Saturday's draft, general manager Charley Casserly said Wednesday. The Texans dashed the hopes of fans who have been clamoring for the team to pick Vince Young, a Houston native who led the Longhorns to a Rose Bowl win and the national championship over Bush and USC.

Pacers possibly lose 2 starters for Game 3

By Alyson Brodsy and Cliff Brunt · Wednesday, April 26,2006 11:47 p.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Any hopes the Indiana Pacers had of getting through the playoffs relatively healthy vanished by the end of their Game 2 loss at New Jersey. The Pacers enter Game 3 today with starters Peja Stojakovic and Stephen Jackson and reserve Jamaal Tinsley nursing injuries. The situation is all too familiar for a team that has used 32 different starting lineups this season while player after player has gone down.

Twenty-two strikeouts. Eleven innings. One run. After the IU softball team's game against instate rival Indiana State last night, these were all the numbers you needed to know. Thankfully for the Hoosiers, the one run belonged to them as they scored in the top of the eleventh inning to take the 1-0 victory. With the win, the Hoosiers move to 26-22-1 on the season. The 22 strikeouts were from senior Mariangee Bogado, who was one strikeout shy of tying the team record she set earlier this season on Feb. 24. Bogando also one-hit the Sycamores. "I was just going out there trying to get outs to continue to keep my team in the game," Bogado said. "I wasn't thinking about the strikeouts at all."

By Rick Harker · Wednesday, April 26,2006 11:43 p.m.

As they have for most of the season, the IU women's track and field team will participate in a meet this weekend. There is just one difference: this weekend's meet will be nationally televised on NBC. The Hoosiers will compete in the 112th annual Penn Relays in Philadelphia, which starts today and goes through Saturday. The nationally televised meet has IU pumped to compete this weekend. "The best teams in the nation compete every year at this meet, including North Carolina, Duke, Arkansas and Tennessee," said senior distance runner Larra Overton.

Reggie Bush or Reggie bust?

By Alyson Brodsy and Andrew Shaffer · Wednesday, April 26,2006 12:01 a.m.

Choose wisely. Sure, NFL general managers, coaches and owners are not in search of the Holy Grail -- but Draft Day may have more similarities to April's holy holidays than you'd think. It is a day full of hidden surprises, when NFL players fall from the sky, seemingly coming from nowhere. It is a day when teams can rise from dead-last place in their divisions. It is a day when the word "fast" is also a guideline to live by. It is a day when students become athletes after years of dedicated training.

Goal remains for IU: Get Big Ten backpacks

By Chris Sauer · Tuesday, April 25,2006 11:59 p.m.

The goal was set at the beginning of the year: the IU softball team wanted backpacks. But not just any backpacks; they wanted the ones that say "Big Ten Tournament" on them.

IU places 13th at Lady Buckeye Invite

By Sam Story · Tuesday, April 25,2006 12:19 a.m.

At the start of the season, the message was simple from IU women's golf coach Clint Wallman. "We just want to score better with every round," he said. While the Hoosiers were steady in their play this weekend at the Lady Buckeye Invitational, there was only so much they could do against the best of the Big Ten and two Southern powerhouses in the University of Florida and Auburn University. The Hoosiers fired rounds of 306, 307 and 308. If a team could shoot as consistently, Wallman would never be convinced of it.

Teams captures 2nd title of season

By Kevin Kane · Tuesday, April 25,2006 12:18 a.m.

In its last tournament before the Big Ten Championships, the IU men's golf team won its second title of the season. Defeating runner-up Minnesota by four strokes, IU left East Lansing, Mich., as the 39th winner of the Fossum/Spartan Invitational. The team will now focus on the upcoming conference championship. Eight events into the season, the Hoosiers had not secured a tournament championship. After inclement weather denied the team the chance to play the third round and move up on the leaderboard at Pinehurst, IU has since tallied two championships in the past three events with a second-place finish as well.

IU edges out in-state rival Cardinals 2-0

By Chris Sauer · Tuesday, April 25,2006 12:17 a.m.

Playing its fifth game in four days because of a rain out earlier in the season, the IU softball team took on in-state rival Ball State Monday. The Hoosiers won 2-0, improving their record to 25-22 overall. "We did what it took to win," IU coach Stacey Phillips said. "Everyone is a little worn out from the past weekend, but we still pulled through for the win." Senior Megan Roark, pitching for the second consecutive game, pitched a three-hit shutout against the Cardinals with eight strikeouts. Junior Christy Wahl entered the game in relief in the seventh inning and recorded her first save of the season.

Hoosier skipper faces former team for 1st time

By Jake Brown and Jacob Brown · Tuesday, April 25,2006 12:17 a.m.

When IU baseball coach Tracy Smith glances right from his perch atop the steps of the Hoosier dugout today, he's going to see a team on the visitor's side with which he is very familiar. Scouting reports aside, Smith will know everybody in the Miami of Ohio dugout because he spent nine seasons as the head coach there, compiling a .590 winning percentage and two NCAA tournament appearances as the Redhawks' skipper. Smith took over the IU program after completing the 2005 season with Miami, and while he looks forward to the reunion with his former team, he remains focused on the task at hand on the field.

By Gavin Lesnick · Monday, April 24,2006 11:56 p.m.

For sophomore Danah Ford, golf is a real family affair. At an early age, Ford's father, a golf professional in Indianapolis, brought his daughter to the course. Now, as Ford prepares for her second season on the Women's Golf team, she hopes to take the interest her father instilled in her to a higher level.

By Michael Sanserino · Monday, April 24,2006 2:57 a.m.

Kappa Kappa Gamma can now take "Little 5" literally. The team won its record-setting fifth championship in familiar fashion Friday as senior Jess Sapp edged out Kappa Delta's Lauren Ziemba by inches to seal the win. Friday's win broke a tie held with Kappa Alpha Theta for most Little 500 championships held by a single women's team.

'Poster boy'

By Chris Engel · Monday, April 24,2006 2:57 a.m.

In 2000, as a high school senior, Hans Arnesen came down to Bloomington from Minnesota and witnessed the Cutters lap the field en route to their sixth Little 500 championship. Five years later, in his final Little 500, the Alpha Tau Omega senior lapped the field 39 laps into the annual cycling race and never looked back. One hundred sixty laps later, despite attempts from Cutters, Dodds House, Phi Gamma Delta and Acacia to catch up, Arnesen took the checkered flag still in front by a lap.
