The short answerUpdated Oct 20, 2026
Indiana sports run on four levels at once. The Colts, Pacers, and Fever carry the pro side out of Indianapolis. The colleges supply the rivalries: Indiana in Bloomington, Purdue in West Lafayette, Notre Dame in South Bend, plus Butler and Ball State. Motorsports takes a month of its own every May at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. And Indiana high school football and IHSAA basketball still fill bleachers and gyms on a Friday night.
- Coverage
- 186 sports stories
Coverage here follows all four. Purdue and Indiana through the transfer portal and the NFL Draft, Notre Dame football, the 500 and the Brickyard in May, and high school ball across conferences like the Northeast 8 and the Allen County Athletic Conference. The Get IN. Sports podcast, hosted by Dom Miranda, works the same beat in interviews with the reporters, coaches and broadcasters who cover it.

Questions
Indiana sports questions people actually ask
Written to answer the thing you actually searched for, not to pad the page.
01
What pro sports teams play in Indiana?
Indianapolis carries most of the pro calendar: the Colts in the NFL at Lucas Oil Stadium, the Pacers and the Indiana Fever at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the Indianapolis Indians at Victory Field, and Indy Eleven in soccer. Indy Ignite plays pro volleyball at the Fishers Event Center, and Fort Wayne FC plays in the northeast.
02
Which Indiana college programs get the most coverage?
Indiana in Bloomington, Purdue in West Lafayette and Notre Dame in South Bend set the calendar, with Butler and Ball State close behind. The small-college rivalries count too: the Monon Bell Classic is one of the oldest trophy games in college football.
03
How does the IHSAA state tournament work?
Most IHSAA team sports run the same ladder: sectional, then regional, then semi-state, then the state finals. Sectional week is the round fans travel for, and the finals move between host venues. IHSAA volleyball moved its finals to Gainbridge Fieldhouse in 2025.
04
When is the next Indy 500?
The 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500 is Sunday, May 24, 2026, at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Race week is a season of its own in Indiana, from Carb Day to the Snake Pit, and it has a full guide on the Indy 500 page.
05
Is there a Get Indiana sports podcast?
Yes. Get IN. Sports is hosted by Dom Miranda and covers high school, college and pro sports across Indiana, mostly through interviews with the reporters, coaches and broadcasters on those beats. It publishes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and YouTube.
06
Does Get Indiana cover high school sports outside Indianapolis?
Yes. Northeast Indiana gets its own weekly coverage, including football previews for the Northeast 8 Conference, the Allen County Athletic Conference and the Northeast Corner Conference, plus Fort Wayne area games, sectional runs and recruiting news.
07
What sports is Indiana best known for?
Basketball and motorsports. The high school game is why Hoosier Hysteria is a phrase, Hinkle Fieldhouse still hosts postseason basketball, and the IHSAA tournament fills gyms every March. Motorsports is the other half: Indianapolis Motor Speedway has run since 1911 and takes most of May.
08
How often is this sports coverage updated?
New stories publish as games, signings and results land, which is most days in football and basketball season. The shelves above re-sort as coverage arrives, so the pro, college, high school and motorsports rows each stay current without this page being rewritten.
