Battle on the bubble

By John Rodgers · Friday, Feb. 11,2005 1:27 a.m.

For IU coach Mike Davis, three would not be enough. Saddled with a 10-10 record with seven conference games remaining before the Big Ten Tournament, Davis said Thursday that the Big Ten is not receiving enough credit around the nation for its quality basketball teams, and he's ready to put a stop to it.

By Andy Romey · Friday, Feb. 11,2005 1:02 a.m.

The IU women's tennis team is about halfway through its trek -- a trek through one of the hardest non-conference schedules in the country. This weekend brings No. 30 Wake Forest, No. 19 Texas A&M and Butler University to the IU Varsity Tennis Center for yet another step along the road.

By Alyson Brodsy · Friday, Feb. 11,2005 1 a.m.

Finding a way to win on the road during conference play is something IU has been searching for all season. The search will continue for at least one more game as the Hoosiers fell to No. 25 Penn State 67-45 in University Park, Pa. at the Bryce Jordan Center.

IU takes on West Coast

By Steve Brennan · Friday, Feb. 11,2005 12:59 a.m.

The IU women's water polo team never backs down from a challenge. The team competed valiantly in its season opener against No. 1 UCLA, falling just short of victory. But rather than dwell on a tough loss, the team took lessons from the UCLA game and used them to defeat then-No. 9 Michigan. The Hoosiers will bring that same toughness to Palo Alto, Calif., this weekend for the Stanford Invitational.

By Eamonn Brennan · Friday, Feb. 11,2005 12:57 a.m.

If the IU men's tennis team was getting used to playing at home, that routine is about to break in a large way. The Hoosiers will swing southeast this weekend for two hard-hitting engagements against ranked teams, No. 9 Virginia and No. 57 North Carolina State, two teams with stellar early season records and tough lineups.

Giambi apologizes but won't say why

By Alyson Brodsy and Ronald Blum · Friday, Feb. 11,2005 12:55 a.m.

NEW YORK - Jason Giambi twiddled his thumbs, crossed his legs and fidgeted in his chair. He said he was sorry five times. He apologized three times. To the New York Yankees. To his teammates. To the fans. But he never said why. And he never talked about using steroids, never mentioned the word.

The man behind the melee

By Adam Aasen · Thursday, Feb. 10,2005 1:12 a.m.

Growing up in Queensbridge, N.Y., Indiana Pacer Ron Artest had a bully. As funny as it seems, the NBA All-Star, famous for his brawl in Detroit, would get picked on every day. And even more ironic is the fact that Ron wouldn't fight back. "Ron was always really different," said Sarah Artest, Ron's mother, who now lives in Carmel, Ind. "He was always very laid-back. He might have gotten into a fight, but it took a lot to make him fight."

By Alyson Brodsy · Wednesday, Feb. 9,2005 11:58 p.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- An NCAA committee Wednesday recommended that permission to use a video replay system tested last season in the Big Ten be expanded to all schools and conferences for further study during the 2005 football season. The recommendation by the Football Rules Committee will be considered by an oversight panel Feb. 24 and, if approved, will be put in place for the regular season this fall. "The response to video replay nationally and in the Big Ten was overwhelmingly positive," said Chuck Broyles, the coach at Pittsburg State and chairman of the rules committee.

Selig responds to renewed steroid talk

By Alyson Brodsy and Josh Dubow · Wednesday, Feb. 9,2005 11:57 p.m.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Commissioner Bud Selig is confident that baseball's new steroid policy will be in place when spring training opens next week and dismissed criticism that it does not go far enough to rid the game of performance-enhancing drugs. "As a sport we have done everything that we could at this point," Selig said Wednesday. "There are immediate penalties, random testing, a player gets publicly named if heaven forbid he does test positively. I'm very sensitive about this whole subject but I think the sport has addressed it.

Hoosiers hoping to end mid-season funk

By Alyson Brodsy · Wednesday, Feb. 9,2005 11:49 p.m.

For IU women's basketball coach Kathi Bennett and the Hoosiers, it seems as if everyone is ranked these days. In their last 10 contests, six have been against the nation's top 25 programs -- all of which have been against Big Ten schools. The Hoosiers can add one more ranked team to the list as they get ready to take on conference foe No. 25 Penn State tonight at Bryce Jordan Center in University Park, Pa. IU (9-12, Big Ten 2-9) is coming off a 78-46 loss to No. 2 Ohio State Sunday.

Famous Jiu Jitsu instructor to visit IU

By John Wustrow · Wednesday, Feb. 9,2005 12:20 a.m.

The instructor tells his students the proper way to put opponents into a choke hold after pinning them down. The first thing the instructor tells them is to cross their opponent's arms so each is firmly under the jaw and their thumbs are on the chest. He then instructs the students to push their arms down and elbows up. At this point the opponent is at the mercy of his captor.

By Chris Engel · Tuesday, Feb. 8,2005 11:54 p.m.

Most freshmen approach college as a fresh start to their lives. They migrate to campus and leave behind all the things they didn't accomplish in high school and move on to a new set of goals. But freshman club lacrosse players Ryan Furman, Michael Link and Brennan Matthews want to achieve one of the few goals that eluded them in high school -- a lacrosse championship.

An athlete's invisible opponent

By Andy Romey · Monday, Feb. 7,2005 11:41 p.m.

It's that time of year again. It's that time of year when IU's athletic teams have to compete with a tough opponent that even the best scout can't diffuse. And no, this opponent can't serve a tennis ball, hit a three-pointer or even pin an opponent because this opponent has no athletic talent.
