Indiana Hoosiers to Play in First Spartanburg College Baseball Series<\/strong> The second weekend of next year’s baseball season will take head coach\u00a0Jeff Mercer\u00a0and Indiana down south for a four-team, three-game round-robin weekend in South Carolina. The Hoosiers will play a trio of contests in Spartanburg at the home of the Hub City Spartanburgers, the High-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. IU has grown accustomed to playing a round-robin tournament early in the non-conference portion of the schedule. This is the sixth-straight season that the Hoosiers will play a postseason style tournament at the beginning of the year. Last year, IU went down to Jacksonville and played LSU, UCF and Notre Dame at the home of the Marlins’ Triple-A affiliate. The Hoosiers will be joined by Austin Peay, UNCW and Wofford during the weekend in South Carolina. UNCW and Wofford each won 30-or-more games a season ago and finished in the top 125 of the final RPI. Austin Peay is just a year removed from winning 45 games in 2025. Full matchups, dates and times will be set for the Spartanburg College Baseball Series at a later date. IU’s full 2027 schedule will be released in the fall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indiana University’s Marisa Grzesiak and Quinn Henninger Earn Big Ten Postgraduate Scholarships<\/strong> \u00a0 The Big Ten Conference announced its annual postgraduate scholarship recipients on Wednesday, recognizing two student-athletes from each of the 14 Big Ten member institutions who plan to continue their education at a graduate degree program. These honorees will be awarded a $7,500 scholarship, based primarily on academic achievements.\u00a0 Each Big Ten institution developed its own on-campus selection process when awarding the scholarships. Student-athletes must have maintained at least a 3.2 grade-point average (GPA), demonstrated leadership qualities, served as an excellent role model and intended to continue their academic work beyond their baccalaureate degree at a graduate degree program.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indiana University student-athletes\u00a0Marisa Grzesiak\u00a0(women’s soccer) and\u00a0Quinn Henninger\u00a0(men’s swimming and diving) are the department’s recipients of the award. \u00a0Grzesiak was an active leader her final season on the pitch.\u00a0In her final season, Marisa made 12 starts in 17 appearances recording 24 shot attempts and 11 shots on goal. She also earned an assist on the game winning goal against Ball State.\u00a0Grzesiak is a three-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree and a 2024 Big Ten Distinguished Scholar. Henninger put the cherry on top of a decorated diving career, winning the NCAA Championship on 1-meter springboard as a senior in 2025. The 10-time All-American helped lead the IU men’s swimming and diving program to four Big Ten titles and four top five finishes at the NCAA Championships. Alongside his athletic accomplishments, Henninger was a two-time CSC Academic All-America, three-time CSCAA Scholar All-American and three-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Big Ten Postgraduate Scholarship will be used to pay expenses of the student’s postgraduate education to include such related activities as research and teaching, as well as other expenses such as tuition, fees, room and board, required course-related supplies and books. To retain the scholarship, the recipient must be accepted into a full-time graduate degree program within three years from the fall semester after selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WNBA Suspends Phoenix Mercury’s Alyssa Thomas for 1 game for hit to Caitlin Clark\u2019s Throat<\/strong> The\u00a0WNBA\u00a0has suspended Phoenix\u2019s Alyssa Thomas for one game after she made contact with her fist to Caitlin Clark\u2019s throat in\u00a0Wednesday night\u2019s matchup\u00a0against Indiana. It happened with 6:52 left in the second quarter and was deemed to be a non-basketball act. The league gave Thomas a Flagrant Foul 2 penalty for it. No foul was called on the play by officials. The WNBA is allowed to review a game to reclassify a Flagrant foul or to classify as Flagrant any foul not called as such during a game. Thomas will serve her suspension today when the Mercury visit the Toronto Tempo. \u201cIt was egregious. The fact that it was a no-call \u2026 You got to call it,\u201d said Fever coach Stephanie White after the game. \u201cYou\u2019re coming in here aware of what happened two nights ago and that (expletive) still happens? Absolutely unacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn\u2019t the first time the league has upgraded a foul against Clark. Last season Marina Mabrey, when she was with Connecticut, received a technical foul in a game against Indiana. The league later upgraded it to a Flagrant 2. Over the years the NBA has had a few instances where the league upgraded a play that resulted in a suspension. The two teams also played on Monday night and there were six technical fouls called and one ejection. Clark picked up her fifth technical of the season in that game. The team petitioned the league to have it rescinded, but the WNBA confirmed that the technical will stand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The physical play carried over to Wednesday\u2019s game which the Mercury won 111-109. Clark left the game in the third quarter as she was dealing with a back issue. She appeared to tweak her back in the second quarter when she was fouled shooting a 3-pointer in the second quarter. She fell to the ground and was rubbing her back as she stood up. In the first quarter she went back to the tunnel and returned to the bench wearing a wrap around her back. She finished the game with 19 points and eight assists in 20 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taylor University Baseball Staff Lauded by ABCA, Justin Barber Named NAIA Assistant Coach of the Year<\/strong> Following a historic 56-win season and thrilling run to the NAIA World Series championship game, the Taylor University baseball program continued to rack up postseason awards as Justin Barber was named the 2026 NAIA National Assistant Coach of the Year, announced Thursday by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA). Additionally, head coach Kyle Gould was tabbed one of 10 NAIA Regional Coaches of the Year. The honors capped an incredible season for the Trojans, finishing 56-7 overall, including a program-record 33-3 mark in the Crossroads League, and set program highs for wins and winning percentage (.889). The Trojans climbed to a program-best No. 1 national ranking, held the top spot for two months and reached the NAIA World Series championship game for the first time, finishing as national runner-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TU started fast, opening 11-0 for the first time in program history. The Trojans were 22-3 through 25 games and 27-3 through 30, both the best starts the program has recorded, and matched their longest win streak at 24 games. Their 45 regular-season wins were also a program high, and they beat six ranked opponents along the way. The lineup rewrote the program’s offensive record book, setting single-season marks for batting average (.350), runs (690) and home runs (105), among others. The end-of-season accolades stacked up for the TU baseball squad, highlighted by pair of All-Americans and five Academic All-Americans (most among all college levels). The Trojan roster featured 11 all-conference selections while Gould was named Crossroads League Co-Coach of the Year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The season was part of a broader run of success for the TU baseball coaching staff. Each of the past five seasons has produced at least 40 wins, and the program has reached the NAIA National Tournament in each of them. The Trojans claimed a fourth straight Crossroads League regular-season title and a third straight league tournament championship in 2026 before advancing to the NAIA World Series for the third time in program history. The success extends across Gould’s 22 seasons leading the program, a stretch that includes 19 consecutive winning records. Founded in 1945, the American Baseball Coaches Association is the primary professional organization for baseball coaches at the amateur level. It’s over 15,000 members represent all 50 states and 41 countries. Since its initial meeting of 27 college baseball coaches in June 1945, Association membership has broadened to include nine divisions: NCAA Division I, II and III, NAIA, NJCAA, Pacific Association Division, High School, Youth and Travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The University of Indianapolis is Moving to a New Athletic Conference Beginning Next Summer<\/strong> \u00a0 It’s goodbye to the GLVC and hello to the G-MAC for the University of Indianapolis beginning next summer. UIndy on Wednesday, June 24, announced it will leave the Great Lakes Valley Conference and join the Great Midwest Athletic Conference beginning July 1, 2027. The school’s athletic programs will continue in the GLVC until that time. UIndy said it began considering the G-MAC after an invitation from the conference this past spring.\u00a0 The university said it considered, among other factors, conference geography, academic profile, financial health and competitive positioning, before making the decision, which it said, “represents a strategic institutional move that advances the university’s mission, aligns strategic priorities, enhances the student-athlete experience, prioritizes academic success, supports financial stewardship, and positions UIndy Athletics for long-term sustainability and competitive success.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An NCAA Division II athletic conference, the G-MAC, established in 2011, has full member institutions in Kentucky, Michigan and Ohio. It consists of “private, non-profit member institutions and sponsors 26 conference championship sport offerings,” UIndy said, adding that it sponsors a championship for every current UIndy sport except women’s triathlon. “This move reflects a thoughtful evaluation of where we can best support our student-athletes while continuing to uphold the high standards of academic and athletic excellence that have long defined the University of Indianapolis,” UIndy President Dr. Tanuja Singh said in a statement. “We are deeply grateful for our decades of partnership and competition in the GLVC, a conference that has played an important role in our history as a charter member. At the same time, we are excited to begin a new chapter in the G-MAC\u2014one that builds on our proud tradition while creating new opportunities for our student-athletes, coaches, and the Greyhound community.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The change will be UIndy’s first primary conference shift since it became a charter member of the GLVC in 1978. Current G-MAC membership includes the following schools: Ashland University (OH), Cedarville University (OH), University of Findlay (OH), Hillsdale College (MI), Kentucky Wesleyan College (KY), Lake Erie College (OH), Malone University (OH), Northwoods University (MI), Ohio Dominican University (OH), Tiffin University (OH), Ursuline College (OH), Walsh University (OH), Thomas More University (KY).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Former Carmel HS Star and Miami (Ohio) Guard Peter Suder Signs a Two-Way Deal with the Los Angeles Lakers <\/strong> Former Carmel star and Miami (OH) guard Peter Suder has signed a two-way contract with the Los Angeles Lakers. Suder was the MAC Player of the Year last season, averaging 14.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 4.0 assists per game. He shot 54.6% from the floor and 42.1% from three. He helped lead Miami (OH) to an undefeated regular season and its first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2007. Suder helped lead Carmel to two IHSAA Class 4A state championships (2019 and 2022). Suder played two seasons at Bellarmine (2022-24) and two seasons at Miami (OH) (2024-26) in college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indiana Native Ryan Newman making NASCAR return in Truck Series race at North Wilkesboro<\/strong> “The Rocket Man” is coming back to\u00a0NASCAR.\u00a0 Kaulig Racing announced Wednesday\u00a0that South Bend native Ryan Newman will make his first NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series start since 2018 in the July 18 race at North Wilkesboro Speedway.\u00a0 Newman will drive the No. 25 “free agent” RAM truck during the race, marking his return to the Dodge\/RAM marquee for the first time since 2008. “I\u2019m really excited to get back behind the wheel at North Wilkesboro and to be part of Ram\u2019s Free Agent Program,” Newman said in the press release. “It\u2019s special returning to a brand I had so much success with early in my career, and racing at Wilkesboro is always cool.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newman’s storied NASCAR Cup Series career includes the 2002 Rookie of the Year Award as well as wins in the 2008 Daytona 500 and 2013 Brickyard 400. He also finished second in the 2014 Cup Series championship.\u00a0 Not only will the upcoming race at North Wilkesboro mark Newman’s return to the top-three NASCAR divisions, it will also mark his eighth career Truck Series start. Newman won in his first Truck Series start at Atlanta in 2008 and then proceeded to score a top-five finish in his next five starts over the course of 2009-2015.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newman’s last Truck Series start came at Eldora in 2018 where he finished 30th driving for Jordan Anderson Racing. Newman attempted to qualify for the 2021 Truck race on the dirt surface at Bristol but did not make the show.\u00a0 Newman is the second of three Hoosier drivers to pilot the No. 25 “free agent” truck this season. Columbus native Tony Stewart\u00a0drove the truck at the season opener at Daytona\u00a0while Noblesville native Conor Daly\u00a0will drive the truck at Indianapolis Raceway Park\u00a0on July 24.\u00a0 Winamac native Justin Haley is driving full-time for Kaulig Racing in the Truck Series this year and will serve as one of Newman’s teammates during the upcoming race.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
