  • SPT 032613 RATLIFF LB.jpg Despite snow, ISU football practices heating up

    With the snow melting at Memorial Stadium, the Indiana State football team was still getting plenty of work done Tuesday afternoon during the Sycamores’ important first spring under new coach Mike Sanford.
    Maintaining an outstanding defense will be vital to their ability to build upon last season’s success and several key defenders have been lost, particularly in the front seven.
    Associate head coach and defensive coordinator Brian Cabral is enjoying his challenge with the Sycamores after spending 24 years coaching at his alma mater, Colorado. Cabral was an All-American linebacker for the Buffaloes before spending six of his eight years in the NFL with the Chicago Bears.
    He faces the challenge of replacing three starting linebackers and an All-American defensive end (Ben Obaseki) on a defense that was one of the stingiest in the Football Championship Subdivision in 2012.
    Aaron Archie and Jacoby Washington have graduated and Georgia native Tarris Batiste has joined former ISU coach Trent Miles at Georgia State.

For the season, Stone owns a .361 batting average and .447 on-base percentage with 19 RBIs and a team-leading four homers and nine doubles.

  • NIT Indiana St Iowa.jpg Second half dooms ISU; Iowa wins NIT opener 68-52

    For 20 minutes on Wednesday, Indiana State showed the nation why it earned a National Invitation Tournament bid.
    For the last 20 minutes, the Sycamores showed why they lost eight of their last 10 games.
    After controlling parts of the first half, ISU trailed by one at halftime, but its second-half inability to prevent mistakes ensured that its season would come to an end. Iowa won 68-52 at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.

  • SPT 010112 NATASHA ZUREK.jpg ISU women start WNIT trail at Youngstown State

    Climbing the ladder of success includes getting knocked down a rung on occasion.
    Indiana State coach Teri Moren leads the Sycamores into the Women’s NIT today, making her first Division I postseason appearance as a head coach. The 18-12 Sycamores have lost three out of four, but it’s been an enjoyable season as ISU looks to match the most wins in a season since the 2006-07 team went 19-11.
    Youngstown State is coming off a 72-45 loss in the Horizon League Tournament semifinals, but it’s been a historic season for the Penguins (22-9), who have made one of the best one-year turnarounds in the NCAA this season.

  • SPT 111712 LANSING PLEA.jpg Ready for more: Rested ISU excited to make men's NIT run

    Success in the National Invitation Tournament is often predicated on how a team approaches it.
    Is the NIT a validation of a season that was more successful than expected? Or is it a disappointing consolation prize in season that had NCAA Tournament promise?
    Indiana State’s men’s basketball team is hoping to take the former approach as it plays its first NIT game in 35 years as it travels to play Iowa at 7 p.m. today.
    By the time the Sycamores takes the Carver-Hawkeye Arena floor tonight, it will have been 11 days since they last played. It seems an eternity, but the break away from basketball might have been just what they needed.

  • Sanford’s Sycamores picking up the pace

    Indiana State football players and coaches bounced around on a sunny winter day at Memorial Stadium as the first day of spring practice officially initiated the Sycamores into the Mike Sanford era.
    Sanford began the installation of a no-huddle offense, while associate head coach Brian Cabral will lead an aggressive, fast-paced defense.
    “The tempo’s real nice,” said ISU quarterback Mike Perish, who threw for 1,615 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2012. “We’ll have the ability to balance our offense a little bit more. Last year, we were a pretty heavy run team [with Shakir Bell racking up 1,475 yards]. We’ll be able to balance it out a little bit more. I’m just excited to keep learning more every day.”
    Perish, 6-foot-4 redshirt freshman Robert Tonyan Jr., and former Northview standout Trent Lancaster worked in 7-on-7 against defenders with veteran receivers such as Tanner Riley, Demory Lawshe, Donald Spencer and former running back and defensive back Taje High.

  • Metro roundup: ISU baseball routs Austin Peay 8-1

    Five pitchers for the Indiana State baseball team limited the visiting Austin Peay Governors to just two hits and one unearned run on a chilly Tuesday afternoon on Bob Warn Field at Sycamore Stadium, leading the Sycamores to an 8-1 victory.
    ISU moved back above the .500 mark with the win, pushing their record to 8-7 for the season. Austin Peay dropped to 17-3 overall, seeing its nine-game winning streak — which was the longest in the nation — come to an end in Terre Haute.
    APSU took the lead in the top of the second inning as Cody Hudson reached on a single before stealing second base. Hudson stole third later in the frame and scored when catcher Mike Fitzgerald’s throw to third went into left field.

  • Hoosiers lament failure to win Big Ten Tournament

    Logic might dictate that it was in Indiana’s best interest to not win Saturday against Wisconsin.

    After all, the Hoosiers had already won the Big Ten’s regular-season title, are almost certainly going to be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament anyway, and could probably use an extra day off as they prepare to try to win six games in three weeks.
