Offense still looking for the spark

By Cory Steger · Wednesday, Sept. 10,2003 2:13 a.m.

Every one of the women's soccer games this year has been decided by one goal. The Hoosiers know that a strong offense can make the difference as IU is 1-3 on the season. Junior midfielder Kim Grodek said there are other things the offense can do besides scoring a goal that helps the team.

Double trouble in the backfield

By Andrew Rosen · Wednesday, Sept. 10,2003 2:10 a.m.

Four games. 280 minutes. Four hours of field hockey. And the IU women's field hockey team has yet to give up a goal. The Hoosiers defense has been led by two very different defenders. On one side there is freshman center back Morgan Miller who is extremely modest about her play and the honors that she has already received as a freshman, which includes being the first Hoosier to win the Big Ten defensive player of the week. "I really don't think it is an individual honor," Miller said. "It is hard for me to take (the award) and think it is just me, because it's not. I just see it as being in the right place at the right time and doing my role."

Ready to run to the top of the team

By Alex Witteveld · Tuesday, Sept. 9,2003 1:48 a.m.

Sophomore Stephen Haas thinks he can make a major contribution to the Hoosier cross country team this year. "I am in a lot better shape this year," Haas said."Last year my track season ran so long that I was not ready for the cross country season." Last season, Haas ran an IU freshman record of 14:25 for the 5,000 meters. He also ran an 8:19 in the 3,000 meters, becoming only the 19th runner in IU history to break 8:20 indoors. Although Haas had a great track season, summer meets extended his season, and he was in shape for shorter distances as compared to the longer races in cross country. "This year I have been putting in a lot more mileage over the summer," Haas said. "I have been running about 90 miles a week, and I am a lot more confident." Last year, Haas was hampered by an injury during the track season, but he came back strong.

'The Greatest' comes to Bloomington

By Josh Weinfus and Josh Weinfuss · Monday, Sept. 8,2003 2:26 a.m.

One of 'The Greatest,' most flamboyant, outspoken athletes of the 20th century was humbled this past weekend by a man half his size. Muhammad Ali visited Bloomington to join His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama in the opening ceremonies of The Chamtse Ling, an interdenominational temple built by the Tibetan Cultural Center. Joined by daughter Hana, this was the first meeting between Ali, a Muslim, and His Holiness, a Budhist. "He was humbled to meet the Dalai Lama," Hana said. She explained how her father is an advocate of peace and a supporter of the Dalai Lama's beliefs in peace -- a conviction he began to show in 1966, when he declared himself ineligible for the military draft based on his Islamic principles. His decision caused a major backlash against Ali across the nation as well as in the boxing world.

Team loses in invitational

By Alyson Brodsy · Monday, Sept. 8,2003 2:23 a.m.

After this weekend's TIS/Taylor Invitational, the IU women's volleyball team might be feeling a sense of déjà vu. The Hoosiers hosted the second annual invitational and matched their performance last weekend in Miami at the Hurricane Invitational, almost to an identical situation.

Second half scoring spree spells defeat for IU

By Gavin Lesnick · Monday, Sept. 8,2003 2:15 a.m.

Through one half of play Saturday, IU looked like it had turned over a new leaf. The Hoosiers, playing against No. 22 Washington, didn't look anything like a team that lost badly to UConn a week earlier. But that all changed in the second half, as the Hoosiers gave up four touchdowns in less than a quarter and lost 38-13. IU coach Gerry DiNardo was unhappy with both halves.

11 minutes of shame

By Alex Hickey · Monday, Sept. 8,2003 2:14 a.m.

It's cliché to say, "That game was closer than the score indicated." This phrase has garnered far too much usage over the years. Yet it is the perfect way to describe IU's 38-13 loss to No. 22 Washington. For 49 minutes, the Hoosiers matched everything that the Huskies showed them, not appearing the least bit daunted.

on the SIDELINES

By Alyson Brodsy · Monday, Sept. 8,2003 2:11 a.m.

A champion is served: Roddick wins U.S. Open NEW YORK -- Andy Roddick pounded three straight big serves to win the first set of his first Grand Slam final, drawing a standing ovation from the partisan crowd. There was no such celebration from Roddick: He tossed aside a ball he had in his pocket, blew on his fingers, and calmly walked to the sideline to sit down.

By Cory Steger · Friday, Sept. 5,2003 2:22 p.m.

As the Hoosiers prepared for the upcoming season, one thing was apparent -- last year's record of 10-7-2 (4-4-2) would not be acceptable this season.
