Inconsistent offense hurts strategy

By Tyler Hoeppner and Tyler V. Hoeppner · Monday, Oct. 21,2002 1:04 a.m.

If you were to look at the offensive numbers from Saturday's game, IU would appear to be the team that came out on top. But the inability to capitalize in the red zone hurt the Hoosiers as they fell 24-8 to No. 15 Iowa (7-1, 4-0 Big Ten).

Red zone is dead zone for IU

By Alex Hickey · Monday, Oct. 21,2002 1:03 a.m.

It looked like they could do it again. After spotting No. 15 Iowa a 17-0 first quarter lead, the IU offense moved the ball inside the Hawkeye 20-yard line six times in an attempt to pull out a comeback for the ages. But the six trips into the red zone turned into just three points as IU (3-4, 1-2 Big Ten) dropped its Homecoming game 24-8 to the Hawkeyes (7-1, 3-0 Big Ten).

Dayton comes to Bloomington to resume a rivalry that started when both teams were members of the now-extinct MCHL. Dayton is the only former MCHL team that IU has kept on its schedule since joining the Great Midwestern Hockey League in 2001. IU holds the series edge 27-3-1.

Lineman bolsters offense

By Alex Hickey · Friday, Oct. 18,2002 1:34 a.m.

IU fans tend to remember the exploits of the two members of the 2001 all-Big Ten team that graduated last season.

Trips to Iowa, Illinois to prove conference potential

By Ira Klapper · Friday, Oct. 18,2002 1:23 a.m.

Ever since last year's disappointment of missing the Big Ten Tournament by the slimmest of margins, the IU women's soccer team has preached the importance of getting to the post-season this year. After tonight's game in Iowa City and Sunday's game in Champaign, Ill., they might have done enough to earn a trip to East Lansing, Mich., where the Big Ten Tournament will be held in three weeks, and the Hoosiers are looking to solidify their chances of competing in it.

By Aarno Retherford and Aaron Retherford · Friday, Oct. 18,2002 1:22 a.m.

IU has a chance to clinch the No. 1 seed of the Big Ten Tournament outright with a win or tie Sunday. But it won't be easy against a hungry Ohio State team that is coming off a 1-0 heartbreaking loss to Penn State and a 3-0 drubbing of Oakland. The Hoosiers (11-1-2, 5-0-0 in Big Ten) are riding a ten-game winning streak, but the Buckeyes (9-4-0, 2-1-0 in Big Ten) are going to try to get back on track after Penn State ended their six-game winning streak.

All guts and no glory for revamped Hoosier defense

By Alex MelloanRuiz · Thursday, Oct. 17,2002 11:30 a.m.

New to IU this season, women's soccer coach Mick Lyon inherited a unknown defense. Lyon said he knew changes would have to be made in order to remedy an ailing squad that ranked last in Big Ten conference play in both shutouts and goals allowed in 2001. "During preseason, and the first couple of games, I thought we would be an absolute liability at the back," Lyon said. "I knew it was going to be a personal task to put some semblance of good defense together." Fortunately for the Hoosiers, Lyon's teaching worked and IU has improved to fifth in the Big Ten in both goals allowed and shutouts.The team said they felt that during their game against Michigan State the defense finally clicked in the 1-0 shutout. It marked the team's fifth shutout of the season.
