Team seeks more production from bottom of lineup

By Charlie Cunningham and Charlie Gillingham · Friday, April 23,2004 2 a.m.

The season is entering the home stretch, and the IU men's golf team is searching for a way to stand out in a crowded district. Despite placing two golfers in the top 10, IU could only muster a tie for sixth place at last weekend's Kepler Intercollegiate. The Hoosiers realize they will need to put together a stronger performance at this weekend's Firestone Intercollegiate to maintain a strong case for an NCAA Tournament bid.

The No. 10 Hoosier women's water polo squad will look to defend its Collegiate Water Polo Association Conference title this weekend as the team travels to Lewisburg, Penn., for the single-elimination tournament. IU enters the CWPA tourney as the No. 3 seed and will have a first-round bye. The Cream and Crimson are coming off a heartbreaking loss to No. 8 Michigan this past weekend at the CWPA Western Divisional Championships in a match that they controlled for the most of the game. Despite the loss the Hoosiers played sound water polo, as they were led by juniors Krista Peterson and Jessica Goldner.

CHOOSING COLORS

By Dan Patrick · Friday, April 23,2004 1:54 a.m.

Spring is here. The air is warming, the snow has melted and the flowers are beginning to bloom. Tonight there will also be the familiar sounds of cracks from baseball bats and -- football helmets? The IU spring football season is about to come to fruition in the annual Cream and Crimson game tonight. Optimism is high heading into the game, as both the offensive and defensive units have strengthened since last season. IU's offensive line comes back with a full roster of returning players headlined by junior guard Adam Hines, junior tackle Isaac Sowells and sophomore tackle Justin Frye. The trio had the most action on the Hoosier team as they took 969, 967 and 821 snaps, respectively. Hines brings serious experience to the Hoosier roster and has started in nearly every game of his two-season career -- dating back to the second game of his freshman season.

Dream a little dream

By Matt Glenesk · Thursday, April 22,2004 2:14 a.m.

I've been waiting for this day for a long time. This Saturday is the NFL Draft and all my hopes and dreams will finally be realized. I know a lot people were against me leaving early and entering the draft only after my junior season, but I didn't have much of a choice. Coach DiNardo and I didn't really see eye to eye. He told me he didn't have any room on the roster for a 5-foot-5, 127-pound linebacker. Can you believe it?

And the award goes to...

By Katie Schoenbaechler and Katie Shoenbaechler · Thursday, April 22,2004 2:02 a.m.

Little 500 Grand Marshal Jonathan Vaughters will have more responsibilities than riding in the pace car and talking to fans Saturday. Vaughters, a former top-ranked U.S. cyclist and six-time Tour de France participant, will be choosing one outstanding men's Little 500 rider to receive the inaugural "Most Valuable Rider" award. But the award carries much more prestige than just MVR status -- it will give the recipient a one-year opportunity to join Vaughters and his TIAA-CREF Under-23 team to race and begin building a professional cycling career.

Redhawks not to be overlooked

By Alex Witteveld · Wednesday, April 21,2004 1:44 a.m.

The Hoosiers (21-14, 5-7 Big Ten) will take a rare break from conference play today to play host to the University of Miami-Ohio. Though IU is playing a non-conference foe, this doesn't mean the game will be easy. The Redhawks are 22-11 this season and were 36-24 last season as one the best teams in the Mid-American Conference (MAC). Last year, the Hoosiers traveled to Miami to play a game during conference play and lost 8-5. This year, IU hopes it will be different but team members are aware of the quality team they are facing in the Redhawks.

Hoosiers run at 3 different locations

By Rob DeWitte and Rob eWitte · Wednesday, April 21,2004 1 a.m.

The coming weekend will find the IU track team dividing its athletes between three different meets. Several will head east to compete at perhaps the NCAA's most-famous competition -- the Penn Relays -- held at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. Another set will go west to the equally-esteemed Drake Relays -- held at Iowa's Drake University. All other healthy athletes, except those who competed last weekend at Mt. SAC, Calif., will compete at Purdue.
