  • IU will travel to opposite ends of the country this week when it plays at Wake Forest on Wednesday and UCLA on Sunday. In just five days, the Hoosiers will rack up nearly 5,500 miles of travel going between Bloomington, Winston-Salem and Los Angeles.

Patberg is going to be an All-B1G no doubt and possibly All-American by next year. People forget she was a McD's AA out of high school. Her dad was my freshman coach and it's easy to understand why she's such a hungry competitor. Never played for a tougher coach...and it shows in Ali and benefits us BIG time.
