By Sara Meinecke and Sarah Meinecke · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

By Jason Recker · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

After seasons of constant television coverage, the men's basketball team will take a hit this season. And we have the economy to thank, IU Media Relations Director Jeff Fanter said. Seven of IU's first 12 games - including two exhibition contests - will not be televised. Sunday's exhibition victory against Athletes in Action was the first. Other games that will not be televised include Nike Elite, Charlotte, Southern Illinois, Ball State and both Hoosier Classic contests. IU's game against Miami of Florida will be broadcast regionally on the Sunshine Network.

Hoosiers optimistic for new season

By Nate Rau · Thursday, July 25,2002 4:23 p.m.

Interpreted word for word, the women's soccer team's goal for the 2001 season may not seem profound. But coach Joe Kelley maintains that if his team plays its hardest, the Hoosiers can expect an improvement on last year's 8-9-1 record. "It may sound so trite, but we just want to play really well. Every game we want to compete," Kelley said. "We want to go out and play with pride and outwork the other team. Beyond that obviously we're judged by wins and losses. It would be great if things fell our way, but we've got to make our breaks."

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

This is the last year for senior Erin Womble on the women's cross country team, and she doesn't want the disappointment the team experienced last year.

She looks past last year's frustration and sees a positive. "We were on the bubble and almost there. Now we think, 'What can we do?'

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