No. 27 Hoosiers to cap off tough non conference season

By Andy Romey · Thursday, March 10,2005 12:13 a.m.

A win in today's 3 p.m. match against No. 20 Texas Christian University would let the No. 27 Hoosiers do two things. It would send them walking out of the IU Varsity Tennis Center with their first win out of six matches against top-20 ranked opponents this spring. It also would be a good way to close out one of the hardest non conference schedules in the country.

By Josh Weinfus and Josh Weinfuss · Wednesday, March 9,2005 1:12 a.m.

He's your typical IU point guard. He's 6-feet-2-inches tall, about 195 pounds, has the quickness of a jaguar and the hands of a surgeon. With his mind constantly working, thinking two steps ahead of everyone else, his smile can electrify a crowd. And that's only in the biology lab. For Marshall Strickland, the basketball court isn't the only place he's able to showcase his skills.

Team names add creativity, vulgarity to intramural sports

By Gavin Lesnick · Wednesday, March 9,2005 12:42 a.m.

In the end, "We Aren't Gonna Lose" lost, "Super Awesome" wasn't, "The Answer" couldn't find one in the win column and "Team Forfeit Win" forfeited all their games. "Godzilla" bested "Artest's Army," "Big Scary Dinosaurs" couldn't take down the "No Names," and "I Don't Know" faced off against "Bo Doesn't Know" in what was surely a contest of who didn't know more. "We Love Mike Davis" never did get a chance to play "Bring Bobby Back," and "We're Dating Your Sister" -- at the advice of an opponent -- treated her well.
