Indiana University’s Luke Ryan Promoted to Swimming Associate Head Coach Indiana swimming head coach Ray Looze has promoted Luke Ryan to associate head coach ahead of Ryan’s seventh season with the program. In addition, Ryan retains his director of recruiting title. Ryan has stood at the forefront of Indiana’s distance success, most recently highlighted by Big Ten medal sweeps in both the 500-yard freestyle and the 1,650-yard freestyle, as well as Zalán Sárkány’s NCAA record in the 1,000-yard freestyle and 2025 NCAA title in the 1,650 free. Ryan also guided Josh Bey as he dropped 7.71 seconds in the 400-yard IM during his freshman season. The Big Ten Swimmer of the Year and Freshman of the Year, Bey won the conference gold and set the Big Ten record with a 3:34.90, ranking him No. 8 all-time as well as the second-fastest freshman ever.
Since Ryan joined Looze’s staff, Indiana has won six Big Ten titles, including five consecutive on the men’s side. The Hoosier men have earned five consecutive top five finishes at the NCAA Championships, and the women’s program earned its best-ever national performance in 2025, placing fourth. The Hoosier coaching staff has produced double-digit Olympic swimmers in consecutive cycles. Eleven swimmers with ties to the program participated at the Paris Games, including five members of the U.S. Olympic Team as well as athletes representing Egypt, Germany, Israel, the Netherlands and, for the first time in school history, Singapore and Lithuania. Ryan served as an assistant coach for the Tunisian national team at the Fukuoka 2023 World Aquatics Championships and currently serves a similar for the Czechia’s national team.

The New York Dog Wins the 2nd Annual Weine 500 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Carb Day fans said on Friday they were eager for a repeat of last year’s Wienie 500. In what is fast becoming the highlight of Carb Day, Oscar Mayer’s entire fleet of six Wienermobiles battled it out in a two-lap sprint race around the 2.5-mile oval. The fleet included last year’s winner, Slaw Dog, along with newcomer Corn Dog. Corn Dog was a heavy audience favorite. One fan, Giannia Dalcorobbo, said she was cheering for Corn Dog because her elementary school would serve corn dogs on Fridays.
This year’s race was a dog-eat-dog contest right out of the gate. Chi Dog moved swiftly to block Slaw Dog off the line. Then, in a particularly spicy move coming out of turn 2, Chi Dog forced Seattle Dog down into the pit lane. In the end, though, the dog from the Big Apple proved to be the biggest dog in this fight as New York Dog, helmed by “Cook ‘Em Cam” and “Jack & Cheese,” held off Chili Dog at the finish line by less than a bun length. Izaak Landraff and Josh Hunt brought their sons, Declan and Logan to the Wienie 500 this year after enjoying last year’s inaugural running. “I loved seeing the Wienies go by,” Logan Hunt said. “They weren’t as fast as I thought they would be, but they’re still really cool” Izaak said he’s already planning on coming back. “Made the first one, made the second one, we’re making the third one,” he said, adding, “Go Chi Dog! Next year, it’s all yours!”
William Carey Takes Down #1 Taylor in the Opening Round of the NAIA Baseball World Series No. 10 William Carey (Miss.) used a three-run ninth inning to pull away from No. 1 Taylor (Ind.) for a 7-4 victory on Friday at Harris Field, overcoming a sixth-inning comeback by the Trojans in a tightly contested first-round matchup. The Trojans struck first in the opening inning when Brayden Manning lined an RBI single to right field, scoring Fletcher Roemmich for an early 1-0 lead. The Crusaders answered quickly in the bottom of the second, driving in three runs to take control. Gage Hinnant drove in the equalizer with a single before Alan McClean doubled to left-center to put the Crusaders in front. DeeJay Booth later added an RBI groundout to cap the three-run frame and give William Carey a 3-1 advantage. The Crusaders extended the lead in the fifth when Booth launched a solo home run to center field, pushing the margin to 4-1.
Taylor rallied in the sixth inning to erase the deficit. Rylee Singleton delivered an RBI single before a wild pitch brought home another run. Luke Sutter later tied the game at 4-4 with an RBI single to center, shifting momentum back toward the Trojans. After the sixth-inning surge, both teams battled through several scoreless frames as pitching and defense tightened late. William Carey reliever Jimmie Johnson proved critical during that stretch, holding Taylor to just one hit across 3.2 scoreless innings while striking out three. The game remained tied until the bottom of the ninth, when William Carey’s Taylor Walters delivered the go-ahead RBI single through the right side to break the deadlock before Jayden Mark followed with a two-run double to center, extending the lead to 7-4 and sealing the win.
The Crusaders finished with seven runs on seven hits and drew seven walks. Booth led the offense with two RBIs, including the solo homer, while Hinnant added two hits and an RBI. Walters reached base four times and provided the decisive hit in the ninth. Taylor also collected seven hits and seven walks, while Sutter paced the Trojans with two hits and an RBI in the comeback effort. Johnson earned the win in relief for William Carey, improving to 7-2 on the season. Taylor’s Jake Boyer was charged with the loss after the Crusaders broke through in the final inning. Taylor will face No. 4 Doane (Neb.) today at 3 p.m. in an elimination game. William Carey (Miss.) will continue in the winners’ bracket and face No. 7 MACU (Okla.) on Monday at 3 p.m.
