Defense secures 1-0 victory

·

The grandstands were still in place from the previous weekend’s bike race, but the brisk wind and spotty rain kept the stands nearly empty. The weather could not stop the Hoosiers, though, as they pulled out a tough 1-0 victory over Virginia Tech in their sixth spring season match.

IU suffers 4-game sweep by Nittany Lions

·

A four-game sweep certainly could not have been what the IU baseball team envisioned when it headed to Penn State looking to break a five-game losing streak. But the bad became worse for the Hoosiers as the Nittany Lions sank IU (15-22, 4-12) further into the Big Ten cellar.

Tommy John surgery, a procedure that consists of taking a ligament from somewhere else in the body and putting it into the elbow, is becoming more common in young pitchers.

Tommy John surgery. It’s a term thrown around a lot in modern-day sports circles, a sort of “wonder cure” for pitchers unfortunate enough to tear their ulnar collateral ligament, a band in the elbow necessary for throwing at competition speeds. Major League All-Stars such as John Smoltz and Mariano Rivera have undergone the procedure, returning as strong as or better than they were before. But when senior right-hander Chris McCombs, a pitcher on the IU baseball team, had to undergo the procedure at an alarmingly early age – his junior year in high school – he certainly didn’t see it as a medical miracle.
