Team aims for sweep of MSU

By Sarah Trotto · Friday, Feb. 1,2002 12:55 a.m.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Happy birthday, Kathi Bennett. And let Tara Jones blow out the candles. Not since Nov. 9 against the Premier All-Stars has Jones appeared such an offensive weapon. The guard unleashed 27 points against that traveling, exhibition team. But last night, she provided sizzling shooting when it truly mattered -- against a Big Ten foe on the road the night of her coach's 39th birthday. The 5-foot-11 senior led IU with a season-high 21 points with blazing three-pointers and swift bursts to the basket, even while enduring some foul trouble in the Hoosiers' 85-72 triumph against Ohio State. Unlike past performances, Jones didn't allow hot offensive efforts to survive only as short-lived bursts.

Strong offense nets huge win

By Sara Meinecke and Sarah Meinecke · Friday, Feb. 1,2002 12:54 a.m.

COLUMBUS, Ohio. -- A week ago Thursday, the IU women's team was forcing turnovers in their 70-63 upset of No. 15 Wisconsin. Last night, the Hoosiers were supplying them. Good thing for IU, Ohio State was too. While both sides were battling over who could turn the ball over the most, IU (10-11, 4-6 Big Ten) solidified its unsteady offense and was relentless in its unpenetrable defense to get the win over the Buckeyes, 85-72. The 85 points was the most in a Big Ten women's game this season.

Grapplers face tough opponents

By Tyler Hoeppner · Friday, Feb. 1,2002 12:53 a.m.

IU head coach Duane Goldman knows that his team needs to turn things around after starting the Big Ten season 0-2. He has two chances at home this weekend but knows that they will be tough battles. "The team we wanted to put on the mat at the beginning of the season has not been able to come to pass," Goldman said. "I'd like to say that we are at our best, but the circumstances won't allow me to do that. Dual meet wise we can't do that."

Hoosiers eye Gophers

By Jason Recker · Friday, Feb. 1,2002 12:51 a.m.

Four consecutive losses at Williams Arena won't go away. IU gets a chance to exorcise the Minnesota demons at 4:30 p.m. Saturday when it invades Minneapolis for the only meeting of the season between the Hoosiers and Golden Gophers. Last season, IU maintained a nine-point lead for much of the second half, then blew a double-digit advantage in the final three minutes.

IU goes inside for win over Purdue

By Jason Recker · Friday, Feb. 1,2002 12:46 a.m.

All Mike Davis heard all week was three-point this and three-point that. IU's 17 three-pointers Saturday against Illinois justified the chatter. Thursday, IU provided zero evidence it could hit anywhere close to 17 three-point buckets.

IN-state clash has different feel

By Jason Recker · Thursday, Jan. 31,2002 1:11 a.m.

When Bob Knight was fired in September 2000, Purdue coach Gene Keady feared he would have a difficult time getting his players fired up for IU. He figured IU-Purdue just wouldn't be the same, at least from the Purdue perspective. Last year, he appeared to be right on, as IU grabbed both games. But things are different this season. For the first time since the 1973-1974 season, IU and Purdue meet only once, at 7 p.m. tonight at Assembly Hall.

Competing coaches wonder, 'how do you stop' Chapman?

By Sarah Trotto · Thursday, Jan. 31,2002 12:28 a.m.

Minnesota women's basketball coach Brenda Oldfield pondered the same thing other Big Ten coaches have been wondering about IU center Jill Chapman. "How do you stop her?" Oldfield asked with a chuckle. Chapman, a senior, proved unstoppable against the Gophers Sunday, when she exploded for 26 points, eight rebounds and two blocks in the 75-60 IU loss. Taking into account Chapman played with an injured back and battled against triple teams in Minneapolis, Chapman's performances last week were even more impressive, IU coach Kathi Bennett said.
