IU wins after trailing at halftime By Teddy Bailey eebailey@umail.iu.edu @TheTeddyBailey

At halftime, IU’s unprecedented home record of 9-0 seemed in serious jeopardy. Iowa outscored IU 22-8 in the second quarter in what IU Coach Teri Moren called the most painful quarter her team has played all season. The Hoosiers, who committed eight turnovers in the second frame alone, looked out-

up as the Hoosiers defeated the Hawkeyes 79-74 Thursday night. “Well, that was a lot of fun,” Moren said. “Not our finest first half of basketball, but give our kids credit for chipping away. Once we saw the ball go in the net, everything changed for us. I’m really proud of how they handled the second half. They have a tremendous amount of resilience.” Sophomore guard Tyra Buss drove for the game-winning layup with 29 seconds remaining

of-sync going into halftime. IU trailed Iowa, 38-23 at the break. Junior guard Karlee McBride resurrected the Hoosier cause with under eight minutes to play. The sharpshooter drilled back-to-back 3-pointers to cut the Iowa lead to 62-57 and swipe the momentum from the Hawkeyes. McBride’s 3-pointers would set up a 12-5 run to give IU its first lead since the first quarter — a lead that would not be given

Theater department’s ‘Macbeth’ to open Friday By Maia Rabenold mrabenol@indiana.edu | @maialyra

Barefoot in rags and corsets, three witches with tangled hair danced across the stage to the sound of thunder, wind and clicking sticks. These sounds of the outdoors will be brought to the Wells-Metz Theatre for IU Theatre’s production of “Macbeth.” Composer Kimberly Osberg, a second year graduate student in music composition, selected and arranged every sound that will be heard in the show. Most of her work began when she tried the sounds she had been working on in the real setting of the play. “What I try to do is use my musical materials to create a sound world,” Osberg said. “I try to take very simple, understandable things, like drum sounds and voice sounds and the sounds of bird and use that as the vernacular for the play. Then the music and the play come together, and the music can be another character.” Using sound to immerse the audience in the story is something Shakespeare would have wanted to do if he had the technology, Osberg said. Osberg has done this by placing speakers above, below, behind and around the audience to fully surround them. Instead of a traditional stage with all seats facing one side of the room, the stage is set up with seats facing it from all sides. This setup allows the audience to experience not just the play, but each others’ reactions, said director David Kote, a third-year graduate student in the theater department. “It’s almost like you’re inside of the play,” Kote said. “You’re not just

coming to watch it, and there’s a fourth wall between you and the actors. You feel like you’re experiencing it with the actors.” Kote, who comes from an ensemble acting background, said the biggest challenge has been bringing something fresh and new to a play that has been performed for over 400 years. “To me, it’s the perfect play,” Kote said. “It’s a wonderful play to handle just because of the richness

An investigation into former Park Tudor basketball head coach Kyle Cox for an inappropriate relationship with a female student may have been hindered by the school, federal court documents revealed. FBI Special Agent Wendy Osborne confirmed Cox was arrested Thursday afternoon and charged with one count of coercion and enticement, charges that could carry a prison sentence of a minimum of 10 years. This was Cox’s third season as the Park Tudor basketball head coach. He was hired in 2009 to be an assistant coach and the assistant athletic director. IU senior guard Yogi Ferrell played for Cox from 2009 to 2012. Cox was also a teacher and taught the victim during the fall semester. The family released a statement Thursday night thanking local and federal law enforcement officials. They also said they want to make sure this never happens again. “Cox’s depravity is shocking,” the family said in the statement. “We are just thankful that we discovered his actions when we did. As our family moves forward, we will work with the school to make sure that this never happens again at Park Tudor.” A Park Tudor spokesperson released a statement saying the school reported this to the Department of Child Services within 24 hours of learning about the relationship. The school learned of a relationship when the father of a 15-year-old girl came to the school Dec. 14, 2015, with hard copies of images he found on his daughter’s phone. The images showed male and female genitalia, according to court documents obtained by the Indianapolis Star. The victim’s father provided the school with his computer overnight and received it back the next day, but never received the hard copies. The father said in the court documents he was under the impression the school would report the situation. The school filed a report with the Department of Child Services, but did not mention any images or video. That day, Cox resigned. But court documents say Cox was fired and signed a confidentiality agreement. The agreement stated Cox was prohibited from having any contact with any Park Tudor students. A week later, Park Tudor filed a second report, this time discussing explicit images and video of Cox and the victim, court documents show. A meeting was arranged by DCS between the victim’s family and Detective Laura Smith of the

It lets you get lost in what’s going on.”

Since Tuesday, two Bloomington Circle K gas stations have found “skimmers,” devices used to steal credit card data, Bloomington Police Department Capt. Steve Kellams said. At about 1 p.m. Tuesday, police arrived at the Circle K at 2700 E. Third St. in response to a report of a skimmer inside one of the pumps. Circle K employees noticed dimmed lighting on the gas pump Monday and put in a work order to have the lighting system repaired, Kellams said. When the workers arrived to fix the light, they pulled apart the pump system and found the skimmer, a small ribbon-like device. Shortly thereafter, a second Circle K in town found a skimmer and called BPD. The second gas station is the Circle SEE CREDIT, PAGE 5
