Super Bowl teams to be set on Sunday

By Alyson Brodsy and Alan Robinson · Friday, Jan. 20,2006 12:19 a.m.

PITTSBURGH -- Colts quarterback Peyton Manning's arm-waving, finger-pointing and nonstop gesturing at the line of scrimmage seemed especially frantic against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and for good reason.

Super Bowl teams to be set on Sunday

By Alyson Brodsy and Barry Wilner · Friday, Jan. 20,2006 12:18 a.m.

SEATTLE -- The road to the Super Bowl never leads through Carolina. Instead, it leads the Panthers all over the map. Two years ago, the team went to St. Louis and Philadelphia in the playoffs, won both times and made its first NFL championship game appearance. This winter, the stops have been in the Northeast (23-0 over the Giants), the Midwest (29-21 over the Bears) and, now, the Pacific Northwest, where the Seahawks await Sunday in the NFC title game.

IU falls to 3-3 in Big Ten play

By Tim O Brien and Tim O'Brien · Thursday, Jan. 19,2006 9:23 p.m.

Last Thursday, the IU women's basketball team won its third Big Ten game of the year in a game at Northwestern. After the win, IU coach Sharon Versyp gave her team three days off before they would come back and prepare for their game with No. 7 Ohio State. In the early moments of last night's game with the Buckeyes, it seemed that the extra rest had backfired for Versyp and the Hoosiers as Ohio State jumped out of the gates strong, taking an early 12-2 lead.

Hoosiers prepare for 'great challenge' against Buckeyes

By Steve Brennan · Thursday, Jan. 19,2006 1:10 a.m.

For many Big Ten teams, winning conference games on the road is difficult. And winning more away games than home games is almost unheard of. Except for the IU women's basketball team. The Hoosiers (9-7, 3-2 Big Ten) have earned all three of their conference victories on the road. However, their two losses have both occurred in Assembly Hall.

FULL-COURT PRESS

By Brian Janosch · Wednesday, Jan. 18,2006 12:45 p.m.

A Bloomington court storming was long overdue. Gray-haired women standing courtside, holding strands of yellow string were no match for more than 17,000 fans after a 62-60 upset of No. 7 Illinois.

Head coach set to begin end

By Josh Sacks · Wednesday, Jan. 18,2006 12:37 a.m.

After missing last season to take a sabbatical, IU hockey coach Rich Holdeman is coaching in his 13th and final season behind the bench for the Hoosiers. As the Hoosiers' all-time winningest coach in IU Hockey history, compiling 243 victories and a .685 winning percentage, Holdeman has served as a fixture for the IU hockey program and has developed it into one of the elite Div. II club teams in the nation.

Former Hoosiers Tom Coverdale and Kyle Hornsby always told junior guard Rod Wilmont to wait his turn. And Tuesday night, his turn finally came.

IU readying for strong defense of No. 7 Illini

By Brian Janosch · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:50 a.m.

The two teams atop the Big Ten's scoring margin category will meet at 7 p.m. tonight in Assembly Hall. No. 13 IU ranks second in the Big Ten averaging 15 points more than their opponents, while No. 7 Illinois sports a conference best 17-point spread. Both teams are 2-1 in conference play with their lone losses coming on the road, but beyond that, the similarities cease. IU maintains its lopsided margin on the offense. The team shoots a Big Ten-best 53 percent from the field and a nationwide-best 47 percent from three. They average 80 points a game and have only been held below 70 points twice, both of which were losses.

Colts' wild ride ends wide right

By Cordell Eddings and Cordell M. Eddings · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:49 a.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- At 5 p.m., the jersey came off. The emotional tornado that had been the Colts' season dwindled down to deafening silence in the locker room. The eye of the storm culminated in one corner of the room. While disappointed Colts' players dressed to go home, kicker Mike Vanderjagt sat facing his locker, uniform still on, head buried in his hands, tears in his eyes, surrounded by the first wave of prodding cold microphones and tape recorders.

IU diving team tops Bruins at home, sweeps top 3 spots

By Alyson Brodsy · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:34 a.m.

A record-breaking performance from junior Lindsay Weigle helped the IU women's diving team defeat UCLA 39-18 at the Counsilman-Billingsley Aquatics Center Saturday. In the three-meter competition Friday, Weigle amazed the crowd with a school-record string of dives. The Bloomington native nailed all six dives on her list to post a 357.75. That effort surpassed the previous standard of 354.00 set by teammate Christina Loukas on Jan. 29, 2005.

Hoosiers claim Virginia Duals championship

By John Wustrow · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:33 a.m.

With a Big Ten conference that features nine top-25 teams and five in the top 10, the IU wrestling team knew it had to make the most of its non-conference schedule in preparation for the Big Ten season. Consider the mission accomplished. The No. 15 Hoosiers went 4-0 in this weekend's Virginia Duals, winning the championship and taking a 9-0 dual record into the conference season. IU coach Duane Goldman said while this weekend's duals won't do anything to help the team's Big Ten record, he still feels that it will give team members confidence heading into the tough road ahead.

With Monroe playing fill-in, Calloway draws Dee Brown

By Andy Romey · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:31 a.m.

When junior guard Earl Calloway made the journey from a junior college in Atlanta to Bloomington, he had a lot of change to deal with -- a change in temperature and a big change in the level of play. But he was still fast. Tonight, the Georgia native will get to show just how quick he is when he squares off against Illini guard Dee Brown, whose speed is well-documented. "The thing about Dee is that he is quick, but he is a change-of-speed type of player, going from slow to fast," said senior guard Marshall Strickland, who has seen a great deal of Brown in his four-year career. "Earl is fast all the time."

Midwest meltdown: Panthers dominate top defense

By Alyson Brodsy and Rick Gano · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:30 a.m.

CHICAGO -- On Carolina's second snap of the game, Steve Smith gave the Chicago Bears a preview of the long night ahead at Soldier Field. The Panthers receiver maneuvered around Charles Tillman as the defensive back stumbled on the sideline, gathered in a pass after a nice double pump by Jake Delhomme and then used a nifty move to sidestep Mike Brown. Just 55 seconds into the game, Smith was in the end zone. Chicago's defense, which carried the Bears to a division title and playoff berth for the first time in four years, was left grabbing all day -- especially at Smith. And now the Panthers are headed to Seattle for the NFC Championship game after beating Chicago 29-21 Sunday.
