By Ryan Cost and Ryan J. Cost · Wednesday, March 26,2003 1:03 a.m.

IU coach Bob Morgan nabbed win 999 of his career on Tuesday as his Hoosiers continued their early season success with a 4-3 comeback win over Saginaw Valley State at soggy Sembower Field. Sophomore Corby Heckman double plated senior outfielder Mark Calkins in the bottom of the ninth to give IU the victory.Earlier in the inning, it was Calkins who tied the game at three with an RBI double of his own. Heckman has begun the 2003 season on an absolute tear. He was batting .396 coming into the game and then proceeded to go 3-5 with two RBIs including the game-winner. "The pitcher was up 0-2 and he hung a slider," Heckman said. "I was looking for it and I got lucky."

Loss ends chance for title run

By Matt Pera · Monday, March 24,2003 1:07 a.m.

BOSTON -- There's an old saying in sports that goes "Defense wins Championships." It is a mantra that has been passed down from coach to coach for generations and has held true on every level. A few examples: The 1985 Chicago Bears won the Super Bowl behind one of the best NFL defenses of all time. The Detroit Pistons of the late 80's and early 90's won two straight NBA titles due, in large part, to their scrappy play that frustrated opponent's offenses. In the 70's, the Pittsburgh Steelers were renowned for their "Steel Curtain" defensive line.
