Fans keep the faith until the end

By Rachel Kipp · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

They believed until the end. Thousands of fans swarmed theaters, houses, bars and restaurants -- any room that had a television -- almost uniformly clad in red, white and "Indiana" emblems hoping for a Cinderella season with a fairy tale ending. A day and early evening full of girls dangling from car windows, high-spirited honking, long lines and hard partying gave way to a night when nobody remained outdoors. The parking lots stood open, class buildings stood empty and the only sounds were reflected cheers.

Offense can't take bite from Lions

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

Penn State guard Kelly Mazzante caught the ball on the perimeter and fired a three-pointer 23 seconds into the Nittany Lions' matchup with IU last night. That initial shot fell good, registering Mazzante's first three points of a 16-point half. The game went downhill from there -- for the Hoosiers. Too much Mazzante, too little effective defensive and too many missed late foul shots spelled a 67-59 loss for IU at Assembly Hall.

Draft decision not an easy one

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

Four years ago, Kirk Haston made one of the most difficult decisions of his life, jumping from small-town Tennessee to Big Ten country and Bloomington. After IU's first-round NCAA tournament loss to Kent State in March, Haston came face to face with another taxing decision -- stick around Bloomington to finish his collegiate eligibility or scamper to the NBA.

Senior guard takes charge in historic night

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

Senior point guard Heather Cassady peered over her shoulder at her teammates during a timeout in Saturday's game. She shook her hands and shouted to the Hoosiers, "Settle down, white." Northern Arizona had chopped IU's lead to 28-23, and Cassady didn't want to see her team's morale drop. Her teammates weren't hitting their shots, so the senior captain took matters into her own hands.

Team picks up dramatic victory

Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

The men's tennis team couldn't stop Illinois' 48-match winning streak Saturday, but made amends Sunday by topping No. 44 Northwestern 4-3. Hoosier sophomore Zach Held nailed down the win with a three-set win at No. 5 singles, giving the Hoosiers their second Big Ten victory of the season. No. 39 IU (10-5, 2-3 Big Ten) lost the doubles point, but got victories at No. 1 and 2 singles to grab two early points.

Salukis fans help take down Hoosiers

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

It was over before it started. That's what Mike Davis said after the Hoosiers were trampled by Southern Illinois, 72-60, in front of a sellout crowd of 10,000 at a frenzied and chaotic SIU Arena. The win against IU (No. 24 ESPN/USA Today poll) was the first against a ranked team for the Salukis in more than 13 years. Davis said he knew it was coming. "I know my team. Just the look in their eyes," Davis said. "Even though we were up 4-0, you could just tell the momentum was (Salukis') way from the introductions." The crowd was noisy throughout, rattling the Hoosiers (4-2) and taking them out of their offense. The game was a pattern of runs by each team, only the Salukis had more.

Purdue's Keady still scowling over slow start

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

Gene Keady wasn't happy, and he wasn't shy about telling everyone about it. His scowl was worse. His Purdue squad wasn't playing up to his standards and was off to an 0-2 start in Big Ten play. But Wednesday's 84-75 upset of No. 9 Illinois in West Lafayette kept the Boilermakers from their first 0-3 league start in 38 years and might have cheered up Keady.

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

MESA, Ariz. -- Now this is what Moises Alou had in mind for spring training. Sidelined for much of the spring with a strained muscle on his left side, Alou played for the first time in more than a week Tuesday. It was only his eighth exhibition game.

DiNardo faces challenges with new recruit class

By Guy Cipriano · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Football coach Gerry DiNardo recruited some big names at LSU. Quarterback Rohan Davey, wide receiver Josh Reed and linebacker Trev Faulk were talented football players who helped LSU claim Sugar Bowl and SEC championship game victories this past season. Every member of the trio should be dressing Sundays next fall, and they all signed their letters-of-intent during DiNardo's tenure.

Senior quarterback receives fitting finale in last home game

By Sara Meinecke and Sarah Meinecke · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Senior quarterback Antwaan Randle El sat in the press conference after the game with his uniform pants on, black eye paint under his eyes and a big smile on his face. Twenty-five minutes prior to his entrance into the press room, college football's most exciting player and an inevitable College Football Hall of Fame candidate was taking the final snap of his IU career amid chants of "Antwaan" coming from the crowd.

'Playful' fan favorite likes attention

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

If you don't like A.J. Moye, you're among the minority. IU fans chant his name. Everywhere. All the time. When he's on the bench. When he -- in what has become his signature -- cringes his face, bounces up and down and flails his arms in response to a positive swing of Hoosier momentum. Even during campus post-game parties when he's 180 miles away in Lexington, Ky.

The drive to win

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

ATLANTA -- Dane Fife writes this story every week. The senior's defense shuts down an opponent's top scorer, frustrates him and then the opponent smiles about it afterward. Saturday was no different. Just ask Oklahoma leading scorer Hollis Price. "Fife did a great job," Price said. "He was so physical. I usually get around that. But tonight, I just didn't overcome it. He did a great job." Price finished 1 of 11 from the field and scored a season-low six points. He missed six of his seven three-pointers after shooting 39 percent from there this season, committed two turnovers and was never a factor in IU's 73-64 national semifinal victory in the Georgia Dome.

Jeffries chose Hoosiers over Devils

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

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Mike Krzyzweski figured he didn't have much of a shot at convincing Jared Jeffries to play basketball at Duke. After all, Jeffries grew up and played high school basketball within a stone's throw of Assembly Hall and the IU campus.

Friends first, teammates second

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

For some college athletes, friendships between them and a teammate develop during their time training, practicing and travelling together. For two members of the IU women's tennis team, their friendship was created long before the two became Hoosiers.
