Four teams 'tied' up in Big Ten

By Jason Recker · Friday, March 1,2002 12:29 a.m.

The only time in 96 years of basketball four teams tied for the Big Ten championship, was when Chicago went 4-8 in the league and Michigan State wasn't a member of the conference. It's been 76 years since IU, Purdue, Michigan and Iowa all tallied 8-4 league records on their way to sharing the title four ways.

1 LAST time

By Dan Cortez · Friday, March 1,2002 12:29 a.m.

Two weeks ago, senior guard Dane Fife and the Hoosiers methodically picked apart Michigan to set up a game between IU and Ohio State, the then-top two teams in the Big Ten. Although the Hoosiers had to play without Jared Jeffries for much of the game against the Wolverines, IU was determined to get to the game with the Buckeyes tied at 9-4 in the conference. "We're fighting for a Big Ten championship," Fife said after the win in Ann Arbor. "That's something we haven't been able to say generally coming into Ann Arbor. This is a very special season for us. That's why we came in and played so hard and played so well."

By Sarah Payton · Thursday, Feb. 28,2002 12:39 a.m.

Last year's lone IU softball player to make First Team All-Big Ten, senior catcher Brooke Monroe, is beginning her season with the work ethic that has gotten her recognition in her three prior seasons as a Hoosier.

Model senior closing career

By Zack Eldridge · Thursday, Feb. 28,2002 12:38 a.m.

Commitment to tennis, respect of the game, excellence and the belief that the human spirit can accomplish what they desire if they are willing to pay the price. This sentence on the men's tennis team's Web site explains the philosophy of coach Ken Hydinger, and it describes senior Ari Widlansky, too. Widlansky exemplifies the above qualities. He is a piece in the IU tennis program puzzle, and his attitude mirrors that of his coach.

No depth no problem for divers

By Gavin Lesnick · Thursday, Feb. 28,2002 12:35 a.m.

There are only three competing members of the men's diving team. But even with a small roster, the Hoosiers have big expectations for this weekend's Big Ten Championship. "Our attitude is just to be really focused on the things we really want to be doing," Coach Jeff Huber said. "We need to be ready to dive tough in competition, and I think we are. We don't have as many athletes in the event as the women's (team does), but the depth is still there."

Fight for NCAA berth starts with Big Ten tournament

By Sarah Trotto · Thursday, Feb. 28,2002 12:34 a.m.

Much hullabaloo has been made about the strength -- or maybe weakness -- of Big Ten men's basketball. But the women's conference could have nearly as much trouble qualifying more than three teams for the NCAA tournament, depending on which Big Ten coach you ask. IU coach Kathi Bennett said she thinks her fifth-place Hoosiers (14-13, 8-8 Big Ten) have a shot -- if they reach, but more likely if they win, the Big Ten tournament final at Conseco Fieldhouse Monday.

Hoosiers can't duplicate win

By Dan Cortez · Wednesday, Feb. 27,2002 1:32 a.m.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- This time it wasn't a second-half collapse and foul trouble for the Hoosiers' best player that did IU in. And it wasn't even close enough for the Hoosiers to have a last-second shot to send the game into overtime. But IU had its chances. Instead the only constant the last two games for the Hoosiers is they have found another way to drop another game they desperately needed and could have won.

Heading into Monday and Tuesday's Central District Invitational in Parrish, Fla., the women's golf team hadn't played in competition in more than three months, and it showed in the first round. And despite a 25-shot comeback in the second round, the Hoosiers shot a 315 in the third and

By Pat Crowell · Wednesday, Feb. 27,2002 1:10 a.m.

The success of most college athletics programs depends on the success of the recruiting process, and the IU men's track and field team has had several good recruiting classes over the past few years.

Williams gets his revenge

By Jason Recker · Wednesday, Feb. 27,2002 12:58 a.m.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- Frank Williams' last two games against IU were ones he'd rather forget. Half of his final season at Illinois has been far from storybook. The 6-foot-3 point guard has been under the scrutiny of the media, fans and his coach and had the struggles of his team pinned on his back.

Hoosiers in control of Big Ten fate

By Jason Recker · Tuesday, Feb. 26,2002 1:39 a.m.

Sunday's game at Michigan State wasn't a must-win. IU lost a 16-point lead, the game and sole possession of first place in the Big Ten. Tonight's game at Illinois is a must-win. IU can't afford anything else if it wants to stabilize chances for its first Big Ten title since 1993. The eternally optimistic Hoosiers have accepted that. Whether they come through on the plan will unfold at 7 tonight in Champaign's Assembly Hall when No. 25 IU and No. 15 Illinois tangle for the second time this season. IU routed the Fighting Illini 88-57 in the first meeting Jan. 26 behind a school, and Big Ten-record, 17 three pointers.

Freshman Murph Halasz has competed in the 200-yard butterfly nine times so far this season. He's won all of them. Now, with the Big Ten championships beginning on Friday, Halasz hopes he can not only extend that streak, but also write himself into the record books by unseating Olympian Mark Spitz for the best time in school history.

Transfer student key for team

By Beau Wicker · Tuesday, Feb. 26,2002 1:10 a.m.

Junior College transfers have been making major impacts in big time college sports for awhile now. Would the 1990 NCAA champion UNLV Runnin' Rebels have won the basketball championship without Larry Johnson? What about IU's basketball team? Lynn Washington and William Gladness played major roles in the post near the end of Bob Knight's reign.
