Boilermakers upset Duke

By Dan Joling · Monday, Dec. 1,2003 1:17 a.m.

Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski found no fault with his team's effort -- he admits the offense needs work. Had Duke beaten unranked Purdue, the Blue Devils likely would have moved to the top of the polls because of Connecticut's loss earlier in the week.

Paradise lost for IU in island tournament

Monday, Dec. 1,2003 1:16 a.m.

The IU women's basketball team spent its Thanksgiving Break in paradise. But the trip to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, was not as delightful as they had hoped, as the Hoosiers dropped two games in the Paradise Jam and saw their season record fall to 2-2. IU was edged out by Mississippi State 70-67 in Friday's first round game, and lost to Iowa State 75-59 in Saturday's consolation game.

A season in review

By Alex Hickey · Monday, Dec. 1,2003 1:12 a.m.

WARNING: This column contains little or no useful sports content. For many, a 2-10 football season would be considered unmemorable. Not for me. Granted, most of the memories I have from this season occurred off the field. But memories are easy to come by when you spend some 100 hours in a car driving 5,436 miles round trip with my football co-writers, John Rodgers and Gavin Lesnick (Going one way, that's enough mileage to make it to Honolulu. If you got rid of the ocean).

By Zack Eldridge · Monday, Dec. 1,2003 1:10 a.m.

Sunday afternoon was a historic occasion at Armstrong Stadium for several reasons. Not only did the IU men's soccer team score a record five goals in the second half against No. 9 seed Virginia Commonwealth to blank the Rams, 5-0, in the third round of the NCAA Tournament, the No. 8 seed Hoosiers (14-3-5) also advanced to the tournament quarterfinals.

Wright wins battle of top guards

By Natalie A. Trout · Monday, Dec. 1,2003 1:09 a.m.

IU sophomore Bracey Wright had a new responsibility in Saturday afternoon's contest with Xavier, and he must have done something right. IU beat the Musketeers 80-77 in overtime. For the first time, Wright started at point guard, a position he needs to get familiar with since IU coach Mike Davis says it's where he wants to play him. "He was great for our offense," Davis said. "You want the ball in your playmakers hands, and Bracey can make plays."

Hoosiers find way to win

By Tyler Hoeppner and Tyler V. Hoeppner · Monday, Dec. 1,2003 12:33 a.m.

IU coach Mike Davis paced the sidelines and watched his Hoosiers give away the 14-point halftime lead they built over Xavier Saturday. He watched them battle back and send the game into overtime, only to watch them fall behind again. But sophomore guard Bracey Wright took control in the overtime and scored eight of his game-high 27 points, leading the Hoosiers to an 80-77 victory over the Musketeers. It was IU's first appearance in the John R. Wooden Tradition at Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. "I don't think you can question our ability to play," Wright said. "We showed tonight, going into overtime, we were down most of the latter part of the game. We found a way to win, and that's what we stress on this team." And yet Davis had other things on his mind. He learned shortly before the game that his oldest son, Mike Jr., had been taken to the emergency room after reacting to a medication to treat repeated migraines. Early in the week, his sister-in-law had been in a serious car accident.

By Natalie A. Trout · Monday, Nov. 24,2003 1:25 a.m.

Earlier in the week, IU coach Mike Davis wasn't sure who he could count on to be his top scorer. But in IU's 71-64 win over UNC-Greensboro, it was sophomore guard Bracey Wright who came out on top with 23 points, along with two assists and one block.

The bitter end

By John Rodgers · Monday, Nov. 24,2003 1:23 a.m.

The battle for the Bucket turned into a 15-round slugfest. Heavily favored Purdue got all it wanted from the Hoosiers, yet in the end, the Boilermakers escaped Memorial Stadium with a 24-16 win Saturday. Purdue coach Joe Tiller said he was impressed with IU's play. "We feel fortunate to come out of here with a win," Tiller said. "We felt like Indiana played really inspired football, and our hats go off to them. I actually thought they played better than we did today at times. We had moments where we played extremely well, but also had moments where we were plain and flat getting outplayed by the Hoosiers."
