A great article about @IvanKane9 having a big impact as a freshman. Ivan had some of the best command and changeup in his class those traits have carried over to a big freshman year.

[Zach Browning @ZachBrowning17]

"Holy crap, I just got hit by a car."

A week before this season started, freshman Ivan Mastalski was hit by a car while crossing 17th Street on his way to practice.

Now, 3 months later, he’s become one of IU's most trusted bullpen arms. #iubase
