IU sweeps Monday doubleheader vs. Wildcats

Maybe the IU baseball team should play more Monday doubleheaders. With weekend weather conditions forcing the Hoosiers to play a Big Ten twin bill, IU (13-13, 3-5) took two games, 5-4 and 5-2, from Northwestern to split the four-game series with the Wildcats.

A new master

·

AUGUSTA, Ga. – A strange week at the Masters saved the biggest surprises for Sunday – unheralded Zach Johnson won the green jacket, and he had to beat Tiger Woods to get it. Johnson pulled away from Woods and the rest of the pack with three birdies in a crucial four-hole stretch along the back nine of Augusta National, closing with a 69 for a two-shot victory and only the second of his career.

IU offensive linemen adjusting to new roles during spring practice

·

For some offensive-line coaches, losing three starters to graduation might be a cause for concern. But for IU line coach Bobby Johnson this does not appear to be the case. Last fall, Chris Mangiero, Justin Frye and Scott Anderson all finished their careers with the Hoosiers, but IU will still be returning five different players who started at least five games on the front line.
