This Is How We Do It: Intramural Sports at IU

National Champions

My name is Jack Russell and I went to Butler University for the last two years. I then decided to attend Indiana University to experience a larger school. What I didn't know is that I would bring with me the luck of the bulldogs down to IU. Not only have the Hoosiers improved, the Bulldogs didn't make the tournament the year I left them. I found that not only basketball at IU has become better, but so has my college experience as well. I have met so many great people here at IU and hope to bring something I couldn't to Butler - another banner for the Hoosiers! GO IU!

Name: Jack Russell
Hometown: Noblesville
Degree and Major: Education - Social Studies
