MATT BASHORE

·

Bashore had perhaps the best draft prospects of any Hoosier coming into this season, but a slow start in the non-conference schedule caused him to slip.


ERIC ARNETT

·

Arnett’s draft stock soared after a senior season that saw him notch a 12-2 record with a 2.50 ERA. His long 6-5 frame and athleticism tantalized scouts, vaulting him into the first round.


Five Hoosiers, Eric Arnett, Josh Phegley, Matt Bashore, Evan Crawford and Kipp Schutz, were all picked in the MLB draft Tuesday through Wednesday. Arnett, Phegley and Bashore were all Top-50 recruits.

After the Hoosiers’ 2009 Big Ten Championship and NCAA Louisville Regional appearance, two feats IU baseball had not accomplished since 1996, it’s safe to say IU coach Tracy Smith’s project has begun.

Vanderbilt ends IU’s postseason

Vanderbilt would go on to score five runs in the bottom of the fifth inning, extending its lead beyond IU’s reach. The exchange led to a premature end to IU’s first trip to the NCAA Regional since 1996.

Hoosiers crush Ohio State 13-3

·

A 13-3 victory Friday night against No. 1-seeded Ohio State puts the Hoosiers in Saturday’s championship game, and means they would have to lose twice in the double-elimination Big Ten Tournament to lose out on the conference crown.
