I know there are not a lot that enjoy this competition, but I've always loved the "less mainstream" sports and am thrilled we're knocking out Purdue in those!!

We already clinched the win for this season but added some icing to the cake at the B1G outdoor track and field championship.

It came down to the 4x400 relay for both Cup points but IU sweeps the points in Outdoor Track and Field winning 29 to the Boilermakers 22 on the Men's side and 12 to Purdue's 11 on the Women's side. Final Cup standings: Indiana 13, Purdue 7.

After women's soccer, the competition's first event, we're tied.  Next event is volleyball on the 16th which will be played in Indianapolis.

I really wish the Governor’s Cup was elevated to a point where more than 100 people know what it represents!

Is there even a trophy that gets exchanged for it?  If not that’s the first step.  If we have it put it in the union and talk about it on campus tours

Problem with that is there is no exchange. We have had it since 2019 and aren't giving it back anytime soon!
