IU's rowing clinic expanded its session to three weeks this year to better prepare walk-ons and novices for the realities of life in America's oldest intercollegiate sport. "Last year we taught them how to row, but we didn't teach them what rowing was about," head coach Steve Peterson said. "There's a big difference, and we needed more time."

The Juggling Club has been around since the early 1980s and is still trying to rid the association of the circus that goes along with juggling.

By Steve Harris · Wednesday, Oct. 5,2005 12:31 a.m.

The IU women's volleyball team abruptly ended its winning streak this weekend with losses to Ohio State and Penn State. The momentum that had been leading the Hoosiers fizzled Friday as they lost 30-26, 30-20 and 30-22 to the No. 18 Buckeyes and then 30-24, 30-10 and 30-18 to the No. 4 Nittany Lions Saturday. "Both games were tough losses for us this weekend," IU head coach Katie Weismiller said. "Each time we came out strong in the first set, but our passing and serving needed to be worked on."

Quirarte knows where he needs to be to lead

By Joe Syzmusiak and Joe Szymusiak · Monday, Oct. 3,2005 1:22 a.m.

While finishing strong is crucial in any sport, sophomore Santiago Quirarte of the IU men's golf team has found out this season that how you start can be just as important. Quirarte's 73.67 scoring average is second on the team, yet it is clear Quirarte hasn't been getting off to the best starts so far this season. Quirarte averages 74.8 for his first and second rounds and 71.3 in his final rounds. And while head coach Mike Mayer tries to break in his talented freshman class early in the season, he looks for Quirarte to become a more consistent presence in tournaments.

MADISON, Wis. -- Before the start of the football season, most IU fans probably knew freshman wideout James Hardy as the basketball player who played football.

IU beats No. 22 Michigan, falls to unranked Spartans

By Chris Sauer · Monday, Oct. 3,2005 1:17 a.m.

For the IU women's soccer team, 2005 looked a lot like 1994 this weekend. After beating the No. 22-ranked Michigan Wolverines for the first time since 1994 Friday, the Hoosiers lost to the Michigan State Spartans at home for the first time since the same year. IU opened the weekend with a win against the Wolverines, its first victory against a ranked team this season. The Hoosiers were led by goals from senior captain Kristen Zmijewski and sophomore forward Kristen Radcliffe. The stat sheet told a different story for IU, as the Hoosiers were out-shot 20-14 and had less chances than the Wolverines on corner kicks. Despite the statistical disparities, IU made the best of its opportunities on the field to earn the victory.

The win also put the Hoosiers at 2-0 in the Big Ten for the first time in the program's six-year history.

The key to this win was our effort and intensity."

Hoosiers off the pace again in Notre Dame Invitational

By Ryan Goode · Monday, Oct. 3,2005 1:11 a.m.

The IU women's cross country team said that after racing for three consecutive weeks, it will need the two weeks of rest it has coming before its next meet. The effects of their brutal schedule were evident once again as the Hoosiers finished 16th out of 24 teams Friday at the Notre Dame Invitational. Junior Jessica Gall led IU for the second straight week with a time of 17:45, but was well off the winning pace of 16:36, run by Notre Dame's Stephanie Madia. Madia lacked a supporting cast, though, as Illinois and Michigan finished ahead of the Fighting Irish. The Wolverines took home first place.

Penn State snaps Hoosier win streak

By Chris Engel · Monday, Oct. 3,2005 1:08 a.m.

It had been 322 days, 12 games and a national championship win since the IU men's soccer team last tasted defeat before this weekend's matches. The Hoosiers walked away from Friday's matchup with Penn State with their first loss of the season and their streak broken after a 2-1 overtime loss. The Hoosiers jumped out to a 1-0 lead thanks to a Penn State scoring in their own goal 12 minutes into the game. Junior Josh Tudela made a run on the left flank and made a cross that a Nittany Lion defender deflected into the net.
