Front line play key to 1st-round game

By David Uchiyama · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

SAN DIEGO -- Kent State is right where they want to be: in San Diego, as the underdog. "We really thrive in this role," guard Trevor Huffman said. "You can't be in a better spot than being the underdog because there's no pressure on you, it's all on the other team. We just go out there and play free." The Hoosiers, seeded No. 4, face Kent State, seeded No. 13, in the first round of the NCAA championships at 8 p.m. today in Cox Arena.

Hoosiers rip past Wolverines

By Dan Cortez · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- It was a painful lesson Wednesday night, but IU learned it could play without Jared Jeffries. And it was several Hoosiers Sunday who showed they have more confidence as a result of the 64-63 loss to Wisconsin last Wednesday at Assembly Hall. Jarrad Odle, Jeff Newton and Kyle Hornsby each had 17 points as the No. 22 Hoosiers stormed past the Wolverines, 75-55, Sunday before 11,379 at Crisler Arena. Chris Young led Michigan with 18 points. The win sets up a showdown Wednesday night at Assembly Hall between IU and the team it currently shares first place in the Big Ten with, Ohio State.

It was the bottom of the seventh inning of the first game of Saturday's doubleheader, and IU was trailing Penn State 3-2. The Hoosiers got what they wished for. IU loaded the bases on a single, an error and a hit batter. With no outs, sophomore third baseman Vasili Spanos entered the batters' box and drilled a fastball 370 feet for a game-winning grand slam.

Running alerts players

By Jason Recker · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

The men's basketball team spent nearly as much time lining up on the baseline in preparation to run at Monday's practice as it did doing basketball-related drills. The reason for the running, according to sophomore George Leach? Himself. "I kind of caused that running," Leach said after practice and an individual free-throw shooting workout. "I let my emotions get to me in practice, and I shouldn't have said some things. But it was all about playing hard today and showing our coaches that we are in shape and we can go hard."

'Passionate' Dinardo has seen it all

By Ryan Gunterman · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

He's not much of a golfer. Even though he says you couldn't tell, he does jog every now and then. He went to high school with New York Yankees manager Joe Torre and had Torre's sister as a teacher in the seventh grade, but his interest in baseball has grown only with his son's involvement with the game.

McDonald named as new assistant

By Alyson Brodsy and Sarah Trotto · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Though men's basketball coach Mike Davis has said finding a former Hoosier to fill his staff would be ideal, Davis drew his latest assistant coach from California. New assistant coach Ben McDonald, an Nike basketball camp director, offers NBA experience Davis couldn't pass up. "He has NBA experience with us that I want because I want to recruit NBA-type players, so my whole staff has NBA experience, so that's one of the reasons," Davis said. "He's a good guy and a really good individual workout guy."

By Michael Sherman · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Hoosiers kick off spring practice

By Nick Bowton · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

The IU football team kicked off its spring football season Wednesday with its first official spring practice. The practice, the team's first of 15 this spring, was far from flawless, with dropped passes and fumbles. But, senior Antwaan Randle El said, practice wasn't all that bad, either. "The first day went OK," Randle El said. "I'm not just looking at offense and defense, I'm looking at the whole team. I think we got out, and we did some good things. We did some bad things, and of course, we've got to improve, but that will come in the next 14 (practices). I think one of the biggest things we did today was we came out and worked on basically technique -- new guys learning different things, changing positions and that kind of thing."
