The two-day tournament will be played Monday and Tuesday instead of the weekend tournaments the Hoosiers have played this fall -- giving the Hoosiers added scheduling pressures.

In a Big Ten doubleheader this weekend at the Mellencamp Pavilion, the IU field hockey team dropped its first game against No. 7 ranked Michigan, 4-1. Three years removed from a national championship, Michigan dominated most of the game with its aggressive play by scoring the first three goals before IU had a chance to put one up on the board.

Hoosiers control first half only to be blanked in second

By Dan Patrick · Monday, Sept. 27,2004 12:49 a.m.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times for the Hoosier football team Saturday. If Charles Dickens himself could have written the script for a football game, it would probably look like IU's 30-20 loss against Michigan State as the Hoosiers played drastically different between the two halves.

Hoosiers prepare for Big Ten action

By Sam Nissen · Friday, Sept. 24,2004 1:44 a.m.

Last season, the IU women's field hockey program, which had never finished a season with a winning record, entered Big Ten conference play with an eye toward bucking the trend. But the tough Big Ten competition thwarted any Hoosier hopes of finishing the season above .500, as the team finished with an 8-10 record. This year's Hoosier squad enters conference play 6-2 and ready to prove themselves in the Big Ten.

Maddux wins 15th for 17th straight year PITTSBURGH -- Greg Maddux reached 15 wins for a record 17th consecutive season. Getting to 200 innings made him just as happy, "You always have your goals," Maddux said Thursday after leading the Chicago Cubs over the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-3. "One of them is always to win 20, but you always have a goal to pitch 200 innings. If you can go out there and get your 200 innings, you have to be doing something right."

Six teams rise and fall with young QBs

By Alyson Brodsy and Rusty Miller · Thursday, Sept. 23,2004 12:49 a.m.

Experienced quarterbacks are proving their worth in the Big Ten. Just look at the stats. The top four passing offenses (Purdue, Northwestern, Penn State and Illinois) are all led by veteran quarterbacks. Five of the top seven quarterbacks in pass efficiency are holdovers. "If you're going to have only one experienced player back on your squad, you'd want him back at quarterback," said Purdue coach Joe Tiller, who has the luxury of having the best returning quarterback in the conference, Kyle Orton.

Defense get big lift from transfer

By Dan Click · Thursday, Sept. 23,2004 12:39 a.m.

Junior linebacker Paul Szczesny had a choice. When it came time to choose a school to continue his football career he had options: He could have been a Trojan, a Sooner, a Bruin or a Badger. Instead he decided to become a Hoosier, and the coaching staff and he couldn't be happier with the decision, he said. Szczesny (pronounced Skez-nee) thought about staying out West, but his Niles, Ill., roots brought him back to the Midwest as he began to consider schools in the heartland of America.
