·

Battling 25 to 30 mph gusts of wind that were blowing out to center field all day, the Hoosiers (14-13) offensive attack was not as powerful as Sunday’s, but they did hit five home runs in a 12-6 victory against Ball State (11-16) on Tuesday.

IU senior Alex Martin taking charge of young Hoosiers

·

When IU men’s golf coach Mike Mayer began searching for his 2006 recruiting class, senior Alex Martin, a Middletown, Ohio, native was a top priority. An accomplished junior golfer on and off the course, Martin’s hometown is a little less than three hours away from Bloomington and seemed like the perfect fit to pursue his career as a student athlete. However, the first step in the recruiting process took Mayer across the country to watch a young golfer who would blossom into an All-Big Ten player and a mainstay in the Hoosiers lineup all four years.

Known predominantly from his first major act as the frontman of punk rock band Black Flag from 1981 through 1986, Rollins has since engaged in artistic outlets from radio hosting to stand-up comedy. Rollins’ show Monday at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater was part of a spoken-word tour highlighting his life as a musician, traveler, political junkie and generally curious citizen of the world.
