Norville wins 3 more national titlesMar 9, 2013 12:00 AM
Batavia graduate Melissa Norville was mildly disappointed in the 60-meter hurdles finals of the NCAA Division III Women's Track & Field Championships on Saturday at North Central College in Naperville. If she didn't clip that hurdle, she figured she would have lopped a second off her time. As it was, Norville's time of 8.52 seconds set a national meet record.

Hampshire grad Dumoulin is one who definitely gets it Mar 8, 2013 12:00 AM
For someone who not only played most of the time on her previous teams, but who also starred on those teams, this has been a bit of a strange year of basketball for Hampshire graduate Cassie Dumoulin. That doesn't mean it's been all bad. To the contrary, Dumolulin had the time of her life wearing the orange and blue No. 10 uniform for the University of Illinois this season.

Big 10 has good chance of getting a team into Final Four Mar 8, 2013 12:00 AM
The Big Ten hasn't had a women's basketball team reach the NCAA Final Four since 2005 when Michigan State was the national runner-up. The conference has had just one national champion since the NCAA started crowning women's basketball champions in 1982 — Purdue in 1999. Only four other times has the Big Ten been represented in the Final Four — Minnesota in 2004, Purdue in 2001 and Iowa and Ohio State in 1993. But if the national RPI rankings are any indicator, that could change this year.
