Seniors say farewell again

·

The Hoosier faithful were granted one last chance to see Tom Coverdale's fiery hair and ball-handling expertise, one last chance to see Kyle Hornsby's throwback crew cut and spot-shooting prowess, and one last chance to see Jeff Newton's 6-feet-9-inch frame, dunking and all-around skills here in Bloomington. The seniors from the Hoosier basketball team are currently taking part in a 15 game Barnstorming Tour that will have them playing exhibition games all over the state.

Hoosiers fall to Miami

·

The baseball team lost their fifth non-conference game of the season Wednesday, falling to the Miami Redhawks in Oxford, Ohio. Miami ripped off eight runs in the first three innings of play off of freshman Austin Rhoads and sophomore Brian Lortz to cruise to an 8-5 win. After a scoreless Hoosier first, senior Michael Carlin began the scoring barrage for the Redhawks in their half of the inning with a one out, two-run blast to center field. IU proceeded to go one-two-three in its next frame, and Miami came out firing again. MU's three-run second was highlighted by senior David Cook's two-run bomb, and after two innings the Redhawks owned a 5-0 advantage.

'Aces' wild as IU splits series with Evansville

·

After IU took a hard-fought 3-2 defeat in the first game, the Aces were high throughout the second contest. The Evansville Aces, that is. Evansville scored eight runs out of 14 hits and played flawless defense by amassing no errors and not allowing a single crimson jersey across home plate. After such a fall-off, IU was not happy with its game. "It's almost embarrassing for us to play as flat as we do at times, and to not execute, and do some of the things that we do for other games or when we're playing other teams," coach Sara Hayes said. "We're going to continue to fight, and hopefully we'll bring what we had in the first game to the games we have left."

Club unites bicycle riders

·

Biking in Bloomington isn't restricted to only Little 500 riders. You don't need a team, an interesting name or experience to join the IU Cycling Club. "We offer an alternative to riders other than Little 5," said club president senior Jason Mount. "The club gives riders race experience and a way to improve yourself and your fitness levels. It also gives you the chance to meet other people that ride and that's always a plus."
