The Indiana Athletic Department is gearing up for a trip to compete in the NCAA Tournament.

Listen:

Athletic Director Fred Glass says there's lots of logisitics, such as getting the team, band, cheerleaders to the game, as well as getting tickets to season ticket holders.  He says all the preparations are made easier since the 1st and 2nd round games are in Dayton, Ohio. He says the team, cheerleaders, and others will bus to Dayton, which he added is much easier than flying everyone to Portland,OR last year.

Glass says this NCAA appearance is made even sweeter since the team is a number 1 seed, a far cry from their 11th place finish in the Big Ten two years ago.
