Michigan State, IU to compete for spitoon

·

NCAA rules prohibit any game from ending in a tie. Therefore, Saturday's game between Michigan State (3-6, 1-4 Big Ten), losers of four straight, and IU (3-6, 1-4 Big Ten), losers of three straight, must produce a winner. For the Spartans, the game will come on the heels of a week that could be considered one of the lowest points in the history of the program.

IU meets familiar foe at Big Ten tourney

Before the season began, the IU women's soccer team decided that their most important goal was to make the post-season tournments.

The Boilermakers enter as the third seed, with a 12-4-2 (6-3-1, Big Ten) record, while IU, the sixth seed, owns a 10-6-2 (4-4-2, Big Ten) record.
