Team refocuses on remainder of season during off week

·

Saturday, Memorial Stadium will sit in silence. And it won't bother the Hoosiers one bit. Saturday represents IU's only bye of the season, giving the team a week off as they prepare to take on the No. 19 Wisconsin Badgers next week. "Off-weeks have become such a common thing in college football that everyone has them," said coach Gerry DiNardo, contrasting his playing days at Notre Dame with the present.

Defense comes up big again in fifth road win

·

INDIANAPOLIS -- Thursday night's game between No. 4 IU and Butler was the epitome of an in-state grudge match. Records did not mean anything going into this game, and it was clear from the beginning that the Bulldogs did not care that the Hoosiers are one of the nation's best. IU (7-1-2) survived Butler's (3-5-1) physical play winning 2-0 in the final match of a five-game road trip. "It was one of our best performances," coach Jerry Yeagley said. "The first half was almost clinical. The score did not indicate the quality of play we had offensively."

Hoosiers shut out Bulldogs

·

INDIANAPOLIS --Throughout Indiana's storied 30-year soccer history, the Hoosiers have put up some impressive records, including a 46-game unbeaten streak in 1983 and 1984 and a reigning streak of five consecutive College Cup appearances. Thursday night's 2-0 victory over Butler gave this year's Hoosier squad a tie of a school record with the 1981 team.

Twins down Athletics in playoff opener

·

OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Minnesota Twins shook off a serious case of the playoff jitters in plenty of time. A.J. Pierzynski had four hits, and Corey Koskie homered and drove in three runs as the Twins overcame an early deficit and a series of fielding blunders to beat the Oakland Athletics 7-5 Tuesday in the first game of the AL division series. In their first postseason appearance since winning the World Series in 1991, the Twins made three errors in the first two innings and fell behind 5-1 to A's ace Tim Hudson.

Vikings should cut ties with Moss

·

The year was 1998. One of the loudest names in the draft was a lanky receiver out of Marshall named Randy Moss. Moss's skills should have placed him in the top ten, but that "off-field distraction" title was worrisome -- too big of a chance to take for 20 teams. The Minnesota Vikings decided, though, that Moss was too good to pass up, and they took their chances. Moss's personality was too much for Bobby Bowden and the Florida State Seminoles. Much of Moss's collegiate career was played in the darkness of West Virginia because of his problematic reputation drove him away from the public spotlight.

Sophomore golfer hears hype

Even though the Hoosiers were not overly successful as a whole this weekend at the Northern Intercollegiate, a few individuals brought light to the tournament.

·

INDIANAPOLIS -- U.S. interest in Formula One racing has never been up to par with the interest in NASCAR or Indy car racing. But plans may be in the works to turn the tide in favor of Formula One.

Hoosiers beat Buckeyes 3-1

·

The IU women's soccer team began its Big Ten schedule this weekend by going 1-1 on the road. Penn State defeated the Hoosiers in Happy Valley 3-0 on Friday, but IU rebounded with a 3-1 defeat of Ohio State Sunday. "Today the team earned an 'A' grade and an 'A' effort," coach Mick Lyon said in a statement after the win over Ohio State. "In talking to many of the coaches in the conference, the difference between the top teams and the teams in the middle of the pack is who finishes their chances. Today we really finished on our chances. Today was another step forward in the development of the program."
