IUWBB vs Minnesota - 1/4 @ 7:00 ET

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,841]

This will be a tough game for our Ladies as they sit in No. 59 in the NCAA RPI while Minnesota comes at league-leading No. 21.  But unlike the men, they will be prepared and you won't see the mind numbing lineups and substition patterns from Coach Moren that we saw last night with the men.

Lady Hoosiers (11-4, 1-1 B1G) vs. Minnesota (9-6, 0-2 B1G) in Assembly Hall. Ladies looking to rebound from their loss to Ohio State.

This would be a good win for the ladies and a great bounce back from osu. Too bad it's on BTN2Go. Let's go ladies!

End of 1 and the Ladies lead 17-6.  BUT, all is not good in SSAH as both Cahill and Wickware picked up 2 fouls each.  On the other side, Minny has really been careless with the ball and already has 8 TO's which has led to 10 pts. for us.  Buss with 8 pts. so her consecutive game streak of double digit scoring shouldn't be in jeopardy.

Ladies getting the job done and at the half lead 42-23.  Fortunately, no further foul problems so we'll start the second half in good shape from that standpoint.  Leading scorers Gassion 12; Buss 10.   Bench has responded greatly contributing 10 reb. and 11 pts.  Ladies also shooting well; Minny not-so-well.

End of the 3rd and the Ladies are hangin' tough and lead 57-43 but Minny isn't folding and IU only 2 of its last 11 from the field.  Cahill and Anderson each with 3 fouls.

VICTORY!  Lady Hoosiers started strong and take the win 78-62.  Gassion a career high of 26 points; Buss 13; Cahill 12.  Cahill with 9 rebounts.  Note that Cahill did her thing in only 16 minutes of game action due to foul trouble.  That's a heckuva performance.  Minny committed 22 TO's and we scored 25 pts.  That was the key to the game plus strong play from our bench especially in the first half.  Next up is a Jan. 10, trip to Ann Arbor and the Wolverinettes.
