ORLANDO, Fla. -- Tiger Woods sometimes adds green to his wardrobe in April, but that usually means a jacket from Augusta National -- not fatigues from Fort Bragg. The day after the Masters, the world's No. 1 golfer will swap his spikes for Army boots.

Hoosiers look to spring into action

·

When spring break comes to a close, most students find it hard to return home -- except the Hoosiers. After going 4-2 over spring break, the team is ready to return to the comfortable confines Sembower Field for a game against Indiana Wesleyan. The Wildcats come to Bloomington sporting a 2-9 (0-1 MCC) record. IWU has yet to score more than 10 runs in a game, and its biggest victory came over Brescia University, 9-3.

Indiana, Ball State to begin 3-game series MUNCIE -- IU and Ball State have agreed in principle to a three-game series that will bring the Hoosiers to Muncie for only the fourth time since the schools first played in the 1934-35 season.

Tradition long gone

·

INDIANAPOLIS -- Indiana high school basketball traded tradition for trophies in 1998 when it scrapped the tournament format that produced the most famous shot in Hoosier hoops history. Now, 50 years after Bobby Plump's last-second basket lifted tiny Milan over big-school Muncie Central, the tournament is split into four separate classes. There's almost no chance the state ever will go back to the open-class tourney.

Many highs, many lows

·

INDIANAPOLIS -- It was March 12, a Friday which many IU students will remember for sandy beaches and drinks with little umbrellas in them. But IU's two senior players, center George Leach and forward A.J. Moye, will look back and see defeat in a game that squashed their tournament dreams. Illinois 71. Indiana 59. Even a comeback after a 13-point deficit couldn't help the Hoosiers. 'There's always next year,' people will say.

Hoosiers stay alive

·

INDIANAPOLIS --With 8:15 to go in the second half and IU and Ohio State tied at 58, the Hoosiers took the lead with the unlikeliest of candidates. Junior Mark Johnson, a former walk-on, hit a three-pointer and helped lead the Hoosiers (14-14) to an 83-69 win over Ohio State (14-16) in the opening round of the Big Ten Tournament. "I'm just playing within the offense and seeing what happens," Johnson said. "I didn't realize what the score was. I got the pass. I was open, and I stroked it. It took a lot of pressure off of me and made me feel more comfortable out there."
