With five goals this weekend, sophomore forward Kristin Arnold outscored both opponents the IU women’s soccer team faced. On Friday, Arnold scored three goals as the Hoosiers overcame a second-half surge from Northwestern to win 4-3. She netted two more in the Hoosiers’ 2-0 win Sunday over Wisconsin.
The IU field hockey team traveled to Iowa City, Iowa, this weekend with thoughts of upsetting the No. 6 Hawkeyes. After 70 minutes couldn’t determine a winner, the Hoosiers upset bid was spoiled in a 2-1 overtime loss.
This weekend, the IU volleyball team went 1-1 against two tough Big Ten opponents. The Hoosiers dropped their Friday contest against Penn State, but rebounded to defeat Ohio State on Saturday, moving them to 2-2 in Big Ten play this season.
The IU women’s golf team has placed sky-high expectations on itself this fall. Despite leaving the Wolverine Invitational in Ann Arbor, Mich., with their third straight Top 5 finish to open the season, the Hoosiers thought they should have done better.
If this weekend’s game was any indication of how IU’s Big Ten season will play out, the Hoosiers have a trying conference schedule ahead of them – but it shouldn’t be an issue for this team.
The play is legendary. It’s referred to as “the fumblerooski,” and also as “the annexation of Puerto Rico.” On Saturday, sophomore quarterback Kellen Lewis and senior fullback Josiah Sears had their own serendipitous variation that left the Hoosiers elated and the Hawkeyes stunned.
For the third consecutive year, the Indianapolis Colts are 4-0. But Sunday’s 38-20 home win against the Denver Broncos came at a price. Pro Bowl wide receiver Marvin Harrison and starting linebacker Rob Morris suffered injuries during the first half, causing them to leave the game. Morris had a brace placed on his strained left knee and was carted off the field near the end of the half.

The IU men’s golf team finds itself ranked 26th in GolfWeek’s first rankings of the season following an impressive third place finish at the Wolf Run Intercollegiate tournament last weekend in Zionsville, Ind.
Residing in the Hoosier locker room is a dry-erase board with the vague outline of a quarterback drawn on it. One might call it an effigy. It belongs to the defensive linemen, who are affectionately referred to as the “men in the trenches.” A little more than half the drawing currently has color. Before the season ends, the defensive line hopes it’s completely inked-in. But if the men in the trenches want to color in the top of the quarterback’s helmet, they will have to bring their number of sacks from 18 to 30.
When the IU field hockey team travels to Iowa City to take on Iowa on Sunday, they will have an opportunity to get their first Big Ten win over one of the top teams in the country.

After warm up meets with no implications on postseason play, the Hoosiers now head to the Roy Griak Invitational in Minneapolis, and possible postseason berths are on the line. While every team goes to the Big Ten Championships and Regional Championships, a good showing in this tournament will strengthen IU’s chances of sending individual runners to the national championship if the team does not finish well as a whole at regionals. IU coach Ron Helmer is not taking this added incentive lightly, even though he hopes to approach this meet like any other one.
On Friday, the IU volleyball team (10-4, 1-1) will face its toughest competition to date. IU will be taking on No. 3 Penn State at 7 p.m. in the University Gym.
