Why a bucket?

By John Rodgers · Friday, Nov. 21,2003 1 a.m.

It's hard to believe that one of the most famous trophies in college football came from a farm in southern Indiana. But that farm, between Kent and Hanover, Ind., is where the Old Oaken Bucket called home before becoming the winner's prize in the IU-Purdue football game. The bucket's inaugural appearance came in the 1925 game, which ended in a 0-0 tie. Purdue's Fritz Ernst and IU's Wiley J. Huddle were given the job of finding the trophy. The pair found what they were looking for at the old Bruner Farm.

Freshman center brings new height for Hoosiers

By Dan Patrick · Wednesday, Nov. 19,2003 1:59 a.m.

From afar, she looks like any other college woman, well proportioned with shoulder-length blonde hair. But when you stand next to her, it all becomes clear.

No sophomore slump for Valentin

By Dan Patrick · Wednesday, Nov. 19,2003 1:58 a.m.

With only two active players on the latter half of their college careers, IU coach Kathi Bennett has a corral full of young guns to holster. One sharp shooter Bennett won't have to worry about is sophomore Cyndi Valentin. Valentin, at a mere 19 years old, is actually one of the most battle-tested Hoosiers, logging impressive minutes in all 28 of IU's games. However, minutes aren't the only statistic Valentin feasted upon last season.
