Relentless. I look back on last Monday’s national championship between Indiana and Marshall and that’s the word that comes to mind. Marshall was relentless in their attack. They dominated the ball. They shut down the Hoosiers offense. And yet, IU’s players didn’t give up kicking and screaming. They fought...

Every generation has one: a player who stands above all others; a player who people come to see; a player who is more than just a player. In the late 1980s, Ken Snow was that player for Indiana men’s soccer. Kenny, as those who knew him called him, was...

The Indiana Hoosiers men’s soccer team is no stranger to the NCAA Tournament. With 44 appearances, the Hoosiers (15-2-4) lead the NCAA. The third round is also old news. But for a young Hoosiers squad, they continue to defy the odds. They’ve won two out of the three trophies...

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — On a brisk day in Bloomington, the Indiana Hoosiers took just 21 minutes to get onto the board. But before that, the Hoosiers held their own, made perfect passes, defended, man marked and, more importantly, frustrated the University of Kentucky. After 90 minutes, IU took away...
