Managers play big role for Hoosiers

By Zack Eldridge · Thursday, Nov. 6,2003 12:14 a.m.

You won't find their names on the stat sheet following a game. In fact, they haven't seen action in a match in their college careers. Yet they are considered members of the team. Many fans might take for granted the job they do. They get equipment for players both before and after games and practice. They are the managers for the men's soccer team, and they happen to be brothers.

Injuries hurt all aspects of team

By John Rodgers · Wednesday, Nov. 5,2003 1:15 a.m.

Saturday's game was perhaps the most injury-riddled contest of the 2003 season. The Hoosiers played without senior captains Joe Gonzalez and Brian Lewis. Lewis didn't play because of a concussion, and Gonzalez left the game in the first half limping off the field. Gonzalez's X-rays were negative. Junior Matt LoVecchio missed the game because of lingering effects of a concussion. Junior right guard Chris Jahnke was injured in the first half, as well, but X-rays were also negative on the Louisville, Kent., native. In addition, senior Glenn Johnson bruised his ribs. IU coach Gerry DiNardo commented Tuesday on the current status of the injury situation and who would be practicing. "What I know today, I believe Joe (Gonzalez) will go, Matt (LoVecchio) will go, I believe (sophomore) John Pannozzo will go," DiNardo said. "I don't believe Chris Jahnke will go. Now that could change, as well, but this is what I know as of noon. Glenn Johnson is fine."

Big Ten tourney next for women

By Cory Steger · Tuesday, Nov. 4,2003 12:50 a.m.

After starting the season slow with a 2-5 record in their first seven games, the members of the women's soccer team turned their season around going 6-4-1 in their last 11 games, propelling them into the Big Ten tournament as the sixth seed. The Hoosiers will face third-seeded Purdue in the first round, as they did last year. However, they are hoping there won't be a repeat performance of last year's tournament, when they lost to Purdue 1-0 in overtime. Sophomore forward Robin Barker said making the Big Ten tournament is a main goal for the team every season. "The Big Ten tournament is something we want to get to every year," Barker said. "We want to get past the first round and continue to get better." The Hoosiers have already lost to Purdue 2-1 in a hard-fought battle Oct. 24th. History seems to be on the Boilermakers' side, having won four of the last five meetings between the two teams. Barker said every contest with Purdue is a good game.

Little dome of horrors

By Alex Hickey · Monday, Nov. 3,2003 2:03 a.m.

As a football fan, I have witnessed many a disastrous performance at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. When the Bears schedule comes out every season, I usually can be pretty confident in marking an "L" next to the date they will be in Minneapolis. My most infamous memory occurred in 1992 when Jim Harbaugh called an audible that resulted in a Vikings interception return for a touchdown, which caused "Da Coach," Mike Ditka, to verbally undress an embarrassed Harbaugh on the sideline.
