Hoosiers beat Xavier to close 11-game road trip

By Jake Brown and Jacob Brown · Thursday, April 13,2006 2:27 a.m.

If the IU baseball team wanted to gain momentum heading into this weekend's series with Purdue, starting with a victory against Xavier was a good way to do it. Senior pitcher Adam Poole (1-0) threw three innings of scoreless relief, and junior second baseman Keith Haas went 3-for-4 with two RBIs to help IU to its first mid-week win since the beginning of the Big Ten season. "We just came to the field relaxed, we came out and hit the ball," Haas said. Poole struck out one and walked two in his three innings of work.

Attorneys: DNA doesn't match

By Alyson Brodsy · Tuesday, April 11,2006 2:30 a.m.

DURHAM, N.C. -- DNA testing failed to connect any members of the Duke University lacrosse team to the alleged rape of a stripper, attorneys for the athletes said Monday. Citing DNA test results delivered by the state crime lab to police and prosecutors a few hours earlier, the attorneys said the test results prove their clients did not sexually assault and beat a stripper hired to perform at a March 13 team party. No charges have been filed in the case. "No DNA material from any young man was present on the body of this complaining woman," said defense attorney Wade Smith.
