By Alyson Brodsy and Josh Weinfuss · Friday, Oct. 4,2002 4:28 p.m.

The youth movement, which has swept across American athletics, has now added the Hoosiers men's golf team to its list of victims. When the Hoosiers tee off today in Ann Arbor, Mich. at the Wolverine Invitational at the University of Michigan Golf Course, they will be starting two freshmen, two sophomores and one senior. The lineup is a dramatic difference from their first tournament, which included two sophomores and three seniors.

Team looks to get back on track after loss

By Alyson Brodsy and Daniel Cohen · Friday, Oct. 4,2002 4:27 p.m.

After receiving votes in the top 25 of the USA Today/AVCA Coaches Poll, the women's volleyball team will travel to Michigan this weekend to battle the Wolverines Friday night and the No. 21 ranked Michigan State Spartans Saturday. IU (11-3, 1-1) has won six of seven games, but are coming off a loss to the No. 9 Penn State Nittany Lions last weekend. The Hoosiers look to build upon a 1-2 road record this season, but said they know things will not come easy against the fast-paced Wolverines.

Hoosiers face off against DePaul, Northwestern this weekend

By Alyson Brodsy and Ira Klapper · Friday, Oct. 4,2002 4:22 p.m.

The IU women's soccer team will take a break from its Big Ten schedule tonight by hosting DePaul before returning to conference play Saturday to battle Northwestern. These two games will start the second half of the Hoosiers' schedule, and will have ramifications for an NCAA tournament bid. DePaul will be playing the Hoosiers for the first time, and are the last non-conference opponent IU will face until Oct. 27. IU comes into the weekend with a 5-3-1 (2-1-1) record while the Blue Demons enter the weekend with a 6-3-0 record (2-2-0). The Hoosiers know that although they are not playing a Big Ten foe, it is still an extremely important game.

Team refocuses on remainder of season during off week

By Alex Hickey · Friday, Oct. 4,2002 4:21 p.m.

Saturday, Memorial Stadium will sit in silence. And it won't bother the Hoosiers one bit. Saturday represents IU's only bye of the season, giving the team a week off as they prepare to take on the No. 19 Wisconsin Badgers next week. "Off-weeks have become such a common thing in college football that everyone has them," said coach Gerry DiNardo, contrasting his playing days at Notre Dame with the present.

Defense comes up big again in fifth road win

By Alyson Brodsy and Aaron Retherford · Friday, Oct. 4,2002 4:21 p.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Thursday night's game between No. 4 IU and Butler was the epitome of an in-state grudge match. Records did not mean anything going into this game, and it was clear from the beginning that the Bulldogs did not care that the Hoosiers are one of the nation's best. IU (7-1-2) survived Butler's (3-5-1) physical play winning 2-0 in the final match of a five-game road trip. "It was one of our best performances," coach Jerry Yeagley said. "The first half was almost clinical. The score did not indicate the quality of play we had offensively."

By Alyson Brodsy and Andrew Rosen · Friday, Oct. 4,2002 4:20 p.m.

For the last month there have been strong expectations from the women's cross country team. Apparently, the voters for the FinishLynx NCAA Women's Cross Country Poll are starting to listen.

By Colin Nowling · Friday, Oct. 4,2002 4:18 p.m.

Twins down Athletics in playoff opener

By Alyson Brodsy and Greg Beacham · Wednesday, Oct. 2,2002 12:44 a.m.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Minnesota Twins shook off a serious case of the playoff jitters in plenty of time. A.J. Pierzynski had four hits, and Corey Koskie homered and drove in three runs as the Twins overcame an early deficit and a series of fielding blunders to beat the Oakland Athletics 7-5 Tuesday in the first game of the AL division series. In their first postseason appearance since winning the World Series in 1991, the Twins made three errors in the first two innings and fell behind 5-1 to A's ace Tim Hudson.

Vikings should cut ties with Moss

By Alyson Brodsy and Benjy Ekhaus · Wednesday, Oct. 2,2002 12:42 a.m.

The year was 1998. One of the loudest names in the draft was a lanky receiver out of Marshall named Randy Moss. Moss's skills should have placed him in the top ten, but that "off-field distraction" title was worrisome -- too big of a chance to take for 20 teams. The Minnesota Vikings decided, though, that Moss was too good to pass up, and they took their chances. Moss's personality was too much for Bobby Bowden and the Florida State Seminoles. Much of Moss's collegiate career was played in the darkness of West Virginia because of his problematic reputation drove him away from the public spotlight.
