Seven spring sports fought for national recognition with baseball's double and women's golf with a spectacular come-from-behind championship.
The Taylor women’s golf team took the conference crown in the 2025 Crossroads League Championship. With a surge late in the final day, Taylor pushed past No. 8 Marion and No. 13 Indiana Wesleyan to take home the trophy.
Taylor University softball has been rolling to the Crossroads League tournament. They stand at a record of 28-17, putting them fifth in the conference.
“It means a lot, I can’t even put it into words,” senior forward Anton Webb said when talking about his team.
With the end of the indoor season approaching the finish line, the Taylor men’s track and field team looks to make a lasting impression at the championships.
After 24 games, the Taylor’s women’s basketball team stands at 6-18. They are 1-12 in the conference, with a road record of 1-10 and a home record of 5-8.
Taylor made a statement with their final road game of the season against Madonna, winning 91-28. The near 100-point performance set a school and conference record for most points in a game.
Three sports will start up during J-term. Baseball, track and field, and competitive cheer will each get their shot at exciting the Taylor community in a month.
They are not in the spotlight enough and the skill it takes to master their craft is exceptional. That is a solid definition for the Equestrian Club at Taylor University.
Heading into the 2024 season, the Taylor women’s basketball team looks to bounce back from a 12-17 (7-11) season while Taylor’s men’s basketball team plans to make a not-so-silent start.
