IU outshoots IUPUI 32-2, wins 1-0

By Dan Cohen and Daniel Cohen · Thursday, Oct. 16,2003 2:39 a.m.

Junior goaltender Jay Nolly posted consecutive on-the-road shutouts this weekend over Wisconsin and Northwestern. Nolly's efforts reeled him in Big Ten defensive player-of-the-week honors. But that's not his only catch. Nolly hails from Littleton, Colo., a town between the mountains full of streams where he learned the art of fly fishing. At IU, Nolly is a dedicated fisher and was a member of the 2001 Big Ten champion Bass Fishing Club. After the 3-0 shutout of the Badgers, the Hoosiers bussed down to Northwestern but made a quick stop on the way. As IU coach Jerry Yeagley directed the troops to the food court, Nolly landed his eyes on a gold mine -- a bass fishing store -- and decided to shop.
