Hoosiers host Big Tens

·

The Hoosiers look to be a force to be reckoned with this weekend at Robert C. Haugh Complex, where they will host this year’s conference championship, especially after the women’s team moved into the Division I top-25 rankings, up 12 spots from their previous rank of 34th. The team’s change in ranking is mainly a result of their success at Billy Hayes Invitational last week, where the men’s and women’s teams combined to win seven events.
