The 1987 championship game was capped by Keith Smart's jumpshot with five seconds left to play over the Syracuse Orangemen.

Cross Country

Men's cross country

Men's cross country began on the IU campus in 1910. Since the inception of cross country as an NCAA sport, Indiana is one of only nine schools in the nation to have won more than two men's national titles, and is one of seven programs to win at least three national titles. The school's three team national titles came in 1938, 1940, and 1942. IU's 29 NCAA men's championship team appearances are tied for ninth-most in the sport’s history. Indiana has found itself in the top five at the NCAA Men's Championship on nine different occasions. A Hoosier has captured the men's individual crown three times, making Indiana one of only six schools in the country, and the only Big Ten school, to have more than two individual NCAA men's cross country champions. The three individual titles rank as the fourth-most by any school. The Minnesota State Highschool Cross Country Meet A cross country race in Seaside, Oregon. ... NCAA redirects here. ...
