Delts win men's Little 500 after late sprint to finish By Andrew Hussey aphussey@indiana.edu | @thehussnetwork

Luke Tormoehlen had dirt in his teeth. Delta Tau Delta’s senior captain had just kissed the finish line after winning his first Little 500. Minutes prior, he earned the Borg-Warner trophy after his sprint to the finish put the young Delts team in the winner’s circle. “I can’t even put it into words,” Tormoehlen said. “This is how I wanted it to happen. All of my hard work and dedication paid off.” Tormoehlen’s sprint was just how the team said it wanted the end of the race to be set up. “Crazy as it sounds, I compared it to a World War II bomb run,” Delts Coach Courtney Bishop said. “Everyone else but Luke were the fighter pilots just trying to get the bomber to the end.” Tormoehlen was the bomber, sprinting away with the Delts’ second ever

Little 500 victory. The Delts hung close with the pack throughout the race in what was a back-andforth affair. Late in the race, the Delts were right there when the lead pack started to shrink. The Cutters at one point looked like they could break open the race, but Delts, Sigma Alpha Epsilon and the Black Key Bulls were able to close the gap. On the final lap, the race was down to those three teams after Cutters fell back. Turn two was when Tormoehlen made his mark. SEE DELTS, PAGE 6

Phoenix wins Little 500 behind Sherwood's success By Hailey Hernandez hmhernan@indiana.edu | @hmhernandez10

Although it was heading into just its second year as a team, Phoenix Cycling had two advantages. First, whenever Tabitha Sherwood was on the bike, Phoenix didn’t have to worry. Second, Sherwood wasn’t going to settle for second place. The last lap was blurry for Sherwood, and she didn’t have the opportunity to make the moves she wanted, but it was enough to get the job done. Sherwood finished 0.051 seconds ahead of Delta Gamma’s Kristen Bignal on the last straightaway to give Phoenix the title of the women’s Little 500 champion. “We knew that no one would win a sprint against me,” Sherwood said. “And they didn’t. Yeah, it hurt a lot, but I’m so proud of my team.”

“I can’t put into words how much I love my team. They did great today, absolutely great.” Tabitha Sherwood, Phoenix team rider

Starting off strong, Sherwood rode the first 27 laps for Phoenix before its first exchange. After Friday’s performance, Sherwood erased all doubts she was the best rider in the field, teammate Lauren Brand said. “I never doubted that Tabitha wouldn’t get first because she’s the most strong-willed and dedicated person,” Brand said. “There’s no way she was going to let someone beat her.” Sherwood also took home wins this year in Individual Time Trials and Miss N Outs to cap off her final Spring Series. But when the time came for Sherwood to SEE PHOENIX, PAGE 6

Flosstradamus brings EDM to IU Memorial Stadium By Emily Abshire eabshire@indiana.edu | @emily_abs

The bass pounding out of the speakers caused the turf to vibrate under the crowd’s feet as it danced wildly along to the music. Those who secured a spot at the front of the stage could feel the vibrations through the metal gates they were pressed against. Fog poured off the stage into the crowd as pink and white lights spun over their heads in time to the music. As the sun began to set, Memorial Stadium looked drastically different than it did during the spring football game earlier Friday. Flosstradamus, an electronic dance music DJ duo, took over the south end zone Friday as the headliner for the annual Little 500 concert. A caution symbol — Flosstradamus’ logo — lit up the entirety of the scoreboard’s screen as the DJs

riled up the crowd. “We’re turning Hoosier Nation into HDYNATION,” yelled DJ J2K, half of the Flosstradamus duo, as he jumped down from the table where DJ Autobot was playing. Both DJs sported IU basketball jerseys. They invited the audience to join their fan base HDYNATION. J2K continued to switch from his place on top of the table to running across the stage and teaching the audience songs and dances. “It’s good vibes everywhere,” Mercedes Tamayl, 21, said. “I just love them. I love their music. I love their vibes.” Autobot remixed popular modern songs like Drake’s “Hotline Bling” and the White Stripes’ “Seven Nation Army.” He also threw it back with songs such as Bobby McFerrin’s “Don’t Worry, Be Happy,” which the crowd sung their SEE CONCERT, PAGE 6
