One last home game

·

Seeking their ninth-straight victory, the second longest current win streak in the country, the Hoosiers will conclude the regular season Saturday night against Penn State for IU coach Jerry Yeagley's final regular season game. IU (10-3-4, 4-0-1 Big Ten) needs a victory Saturday to ensure the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten tournament, which begins Thursday in Bloomington. A loss would hand the top seed to Michigan, who currently is two points ahead of the Hoosiers but with one conference loss -- that coming to IU 2-1 on Oct. 5 in Ann Arbor, Mich.

Freshman leading the way for IU with goal scoring

·

The IU women's field hockey team enters this weekend's Big Ten tournament with its best record in school history, 8-9. One of the reasons for the Hoosiers' improvement this year has been simple; they have done a much better job at putting the ball in the back of the net. Last year the team totaled 22 goals for the entire season. Entering this weekend's tournament, the Hoosiers have already scored 31 goals.

Overton ranked No. 1 college golfer

·

IU junior Jeff Overton did not win a golf tournament in his first two years as a member of the IU men's golf team. But the coaching staff still saw potential in the quiet Evansville, Ind., native. This fall, Overton lived up to that potential when he won all four tournaments the Hoosiers participated in earning a great deal of attention, including the No. 1 ranking in the country. It seemed every tournament in which Overton teed up, he broke some kind of record. At the Northern Intercollegiate, Overton tied his career 36-hole low score of 136 en route to his first collegiate victory. Next at the Hoosier Invitational Sept. 27-28, he finished with a 10-under-par 203 -- a school record for 54 holes.

Managers play big role for Hoosiers

·

You won't find their names on the stat sheet following a game. In fact, they haven't seen action in a match in their college careers. Yet they are considered members of the team. Many fans might take for granted the job they do. They get equipment for players both before and after games and practice. They are the managers for the men's soccer team, and they happen to be brothers.

Injuries hurt all aspects of team

·

Saturday's game was perhaps the most injury-riddled contest of the 2003 season. The Hoosiers played without senior captains Joe Gonzalez and Brian Lewis. Lewis didn't play because of a concussion, and Gonzalez left the game in the first half limping off the field. Gonzalez's X-rays were negative. Junior Matt LoVecchio missed the game because of lingering effects of a concussion. Junior right guard Chris Jahnke was injured in the first half, as well, but X-rays were also negative on the Louisville, Kent., native. In addition, senior Glenn Johnson bruised his ribs. IU coach Gerry DiNardo commented Tuesday on the current status of the injury situation and who would be practicing. "What I know today, I believe Joe (Gonzalez) will go, Matt (LoVecchio) will go, I believe (sophomore) John Pannozzo will go," DiNardo said. "I don't believe Chris Jahnke will go. Now that could change, as well, but this is what I know as of noon. Glenn Johnson is fine."
