"It felt good and I thought we played really well," IU coach Kathi Bennett said. "Our transition game was working extremely well. We got transition going and ran the floor hard, and that led to some easy baskets."

IU hopes to stop five-game skid

By Sara Meinecke and Sarah Meinecke · Wednesday, Feb. 12,2003 12:12 a.m.

The last time the IU men's basketball team experienced a five-game losing streak, a Republican was president and war was a reality. Perhaps the national events from 31 years ago are oddly familiar, but the winning drought presently plaguing the Hoosiers is unfamiliar territory for the current team.

By Dan Gelston · Tuesday, Feb. 11,2003 12:21 a.m.

Injuries begin to add up

By Natalie A. Trout · Tuesday, Feb. 11,2003 12:09 a.m.

The women's basketball team's season took an unexpected turn on Nov. 9. Junior guard LeeAnn Stephenson stepped up for a lay-up during practice and tore her ACL. It was almost a month later on Dec.17 when freshman guard Kali Kullberg tore her ACL as well. To this day coach Kathi Bennett grimaces at the thought of losing the two players. "You can always tell when they go down and what their reaction is," Bennett said. Kullberg remembers the day clearly and said it started out like any other practice. She wasn't even at full speed when she was running the drill. Kullberg was dribbling to the top of the key to make a pass and stepped forward. She said nothing felt weird and didn't land weird. Kullberg also had no idea how serious the injury was. Stephenson's story isn't much different than Kullberg's. It was the first drill of practice, a little one-on-one, she said. She went to make a lay-up and heard something pop.
