Runner excels in classroom

By Alyson Brodsy and Tyler Hoeppner · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Many college students have a hard time managing their time. Many try to find the balance between studies and free time. Freshman Mindy Peterson is no exception. However, she has honors classes and a cross country schedule to deal with. And she has done both of these things very well. Peterson is one of the top runners for IU's cross country team. She has placed no worse than third for the team in all six of the races she has run in this season. With practices and classes, finding the time to do the things she wants isn't always easy. Practices range from sprint drills to long runs to lifting weights. Weekends don't even offer time off.

By Ryan Gunterman · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Senioritis occurs when someone is close to graduating, and sometimes, they fail to turn in their work and lose motivation. Batting more than .330 with eight home runs and 68 RBIs combined, seniors Dan Haegele and Blake St. Clair don't have the time to worry about catching the mental laziness that plagues seniors around this time of the year. They'll be busy playing the top-ranked team in the Big Ten during graduation ceremonies Saturday.

Hoosiers shut down Spartans early

By Dan Cortez · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Leading up to last night's game, Coach Mike Davis praised Tom Izzo as the best coach in the country, mainly because of the way Izzo can get his No.25 Spartans to be more aggressive than anybody on the boards and defensively. But by the time there were a few minutes left in the game Tuesday night, Izzo could only run his hands through his hair, lean back in his chair and look up to the top of Assembly Hall. Another Michigan State turnover had led to another three-pointer, this one by Dane Fife to give the Hoosiers an 81-58 lead with just 2:33 left.

With a 3-0 win against Butler last night at Bill Armstrong Stadium, Jerry Yeagley became the second coach in NCAA Division I history to record 500 wins.

Hoosiers blow past Utah

By Dan Cortez · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

SACRAMENTO - IU coach Mike Davis admitted it after the game Thursday night. Truth be told, he didn't have to wait that long to divulge his secret. It was obvious to his players that Davis was nervous before the Hoosiers took on Utah Thursday night in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Arco Arena in Sacramento. "I was so tight it was unbelievable," Davis said with a laugh. "(junior Tom) Coverdale walked over to me today during the shoot around and said, 'Coach, just relax, we're going to win.' I was wound up so, so tight because this game, this game was so important for Indiana basketball, for me, for ourselves and for our team." With so much on the line, Davis was justifiably nervous. But after the Hoosiers whipped Utah, 75-56, Coverdale appeared to know what he was talking about heading into the game.
