If you get bored today, check out Point Loma's baseball stadium. It is insane. Note the view beyond the outfield.

I don’t know, I think Fighting Squirrels would’ve been kind of awesome. Like you said, it actually tied in to something at the school, it wasn’t just silly for the sake of being silly. It would certainly have gotten attention.

That makes me laugh every time.
Don't forget, however, when the name initially changed the senior class voted for it to become The Fighting Squirrels (as a homage to the Oak Grove). That was ultimately (thankfully) overridden.

IUP has to beat them today and tomorrow in order to reach Saturday.
Tall task, for sure. But, this is a pretty resiliant team.
They have to get those bats going today.

Yes, IHS still plays it (it is the fight song).
So, we at least still get to hear it in the Homecoming Parade every year.
I agree with you on the Big Indians but it's unfortunately never coming back.
Crimson Hawks has grown on me over the years. It's at least somewhat different. Bears, my opinion, is a dime a dozen nickname.
I thought the bear was getter.

I attended IUP from 1998 to 2003, and I loved being the Indians. I remember the band playing Cherokee as the football team ran onto the field. I wish and hope they would bring back Indians. I’m sorry but it makes sense town of Indiana.
Plus Indiana high school is still the little Indians. Do they still play Cherokee at games? Just wondering I honestly don’t know

I wouldn't have said Final 4 but I kinda did expect vast improvement for the program. When you hire somebody like Kline with his baseball connections and his persona ... well, we see the results.
He doesn't take any crap but the players really respond to him.
Word is their phone is ringing off the wall with transfers wanting to play for him.

Originally posted by EyeoftheHawk View PostIf we would have been told at the beginning of the school year that one IUP sports program was going to make the final four, nobody would have picked baseball. I would have probably said tennis. What an amazing run. This is the grittiest team on campus. For Jake Black to toe the rubber today in that spot and yield just three baserunners for eight inning was unreal. The diving stop by Pontoli was clutch and should be a Sports Center Top 10.
