Golden Boot on the line this weekend

By John Fischer · Friday, Oct. 22,2004 1:41 a.m.

The IU women's soccer team has its sights set on The Golden Boot and aims to bring it back to Bloomington as the team heads into its last weekend of regular season competition. IU will challenge in-state rival Purdue at 3 p.m. Friday hoping to reclaim the Golden Boot, which is the soccer equivalent of football's Old Oaken Bucket game between the two state colleges. The Hoosiers will then take on DePaul at 1 p.m. Sunday. "Considering Purdue has beaten me five times since I've been here, this game means so much to me," said senior co-captain Kim Grodek. "One of my goals this season was just to beat Purdue. I just want to get that Golden Boot one time."

Critical matchup awaits Hoosiers

By Steve Slivka · Friday, Oct. 22,2004 1:39 a.m.

IU coach Mike Freitag said the Big Ten regular season men's soccer title is on the line Sunday, making this weekend's game versus Ohio State (7-4-2 overall, 3-0 Big Ten) the biggest game of the year for No. 8 IU (10-3-1, 4-1-0). The Hoosiers travel to Columbus, Ohio for the their last Big Ten regular season match. Not only would a victory over the Buckeyes solidify the Hoosiers' regular season title, but the win would likely give the team a first-round bye in the Big Ten tournament. "That's a huge game for us," said sophomore midfielder John Michael Hayden. "Having the (night off tonight), we have to come out, we have to be ready to play. I think we're confident we are going to win." If the Buckeyes win Sunday, they still have to play Northwestern Oct. 29 in Evanston, Ill., and Michigan Nov. 6 in Ann Arbor, Mich.

Game Day Predictions

By Cory Steger · Friday, Oct. 22,2004 1:33 a.m.

IU Offense: The Hoosiers have made huge strides in the passing game in recent weeks, and the running game can't be far behind. The Hoosiers will pass early and often to test the young Buckeye secondary, and expect a huge day from Courtney Roby who should easily shred the soft zone defense.

By Eric Anderson · Friday, Oct. 22,2004 12:11 a.m.

It has come to the attention of those of us at the Arts Desk that a large portion of the University's population finds opera to be, shall we say, inaccessible and incomprehensible. So, with a new production opening this very evening, we offer a sort of abbreviated introduction to the world of opera and its various components in the hope that it may clear the fog just a bit.

Go ahead, drop the soap

If I see one more Scott Peterson headline, I might pull out all my hair. It's not that I'm not sympathetic to the murder of a pregnant woman. I am. But the Peterson trial is not news any more than are the other 12,000 homicides in the Unites States every year.
