Senior wins national freestyle crown

Monday, April 9,2001 2:02 a.m.

Senior Michael Dixon's career as an IU wrestler ended at the Big Ten Championships March 4 in Evanston, Ill. Dixon lost his final match to Penn State's Bob Jones and finished eighth in the conference finale. In that respect, Evanston wasn't kind to Dixon. But Dixon made sure the eighth-place finish wasn't his last appearance on the Northwestern campus. Instead, with his career as a Big Ten heavyweight complete, he assured himself of yet another chance to strut his skills on another level, and he's not finished yet.

Trailing by two with just seconds to go, center Kent Benson tipped-in an IU miss to send the game into overtime. The controversial play was disputed by the Michigan bench, as coach John Orr said he felt the tip occurred after the buzzer had sounded.

Hoosiers ready for second race

The crew team might have something going against it this weekend at the Kansas Invite in Lawrence, Kan. Of the six teams that will travel to the contest, only Massachusetts and IU didn't make the trip to Austin, Texas, for the March 16 and 17 Longhorn Invitational. The other four teams at the invitational tournament will be Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa and Tulsa. Instead of trekking to Texas, IU opened its season last weekend with two victories against Louisville, winning both the varsity A race and the novice contest.
