Here is the latest Big Ten Conference sports news from The Associated Press

UNDATED (AP) — Most of the more than $1 billion the NCAA made last year came from the men's Division I basketball tournament. A massive television rights deal with CBS and Turner accounts for about $800 million. The cancellation of the tournament because of the coronavirus will cause the NCAA some red ink on its balance sheet this year. How much is hard to determine. No games means CBS and Turner won't have to pay, though it's likely some of that huge fee has already been doled out. Insurance could cover some of the losses. And the lost year might lead to a discounted one-year extension to the current deal with CBS and Turner that runs through 2032.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Indiana will make Scott Dolson the school's new athletic director. He replaces Fred Glass, who announced in December he would retire at the end of the school year. School President Michael McRobbie says he picked Dolson in part because of his experience in the department. Dolson had been the department's deputy director and chief operating officer since 2009. The move must still be approved by Indiana's board of trustees in April.

NEW YORK (AP) — South Carolina is No. 1 in the final Associated Press women's basketball poll of the season for the first time in school history. The Gamecocks received 26 first-place votes and No. 2 Oregon got the other four. Baylor, Maryland and UConn round out the top five. The AP has always released its final poll of the season before the start of the NCAA Tournament, which has been canceled because of the virus pandemic. Louisville, Stanford, N.C. State, Mississippi State and UCLA round out the top 10.
