#IUWBB - 2019 NCAA Tournament

Recommended Posts

So, proud dad moment- my 15 year old daughter (my sports following kid) is on her way back from Florida. She had a miserable time w her friends (3 is a crowd syndrome)- said the only thing that made her journey back tolerable was following this game!

I had grandpa duties and only saw the last 4 minutes but looking at the box score, we only shot 2 free throws the entire freaking game?   Someone please, a Cliff's Notes on the officiating. 

IU called for a lot of offensive fouls. UT with some big girls that worked the offensive glass but never fouled going after ORebs

NOTES

  • Behind 24 points by sophomore guard Jaelynn Penn, the Indiana Hoosiers held on to beat 7 seed Texas on Friday night, 69-65. Penn went 10-for-21 from the floor and scored the second most points by an IU player in the NCAA Tournament. Sophomore guard Bendu Yeaney added 17 points while redshirt juniors Brenna Wise and Ali Patberg each added 10 points.
  • Indiana earned an at-large bid in to the NCAA Tournament. It marks the program's sixth bid into the Big Dance and the program's fifth at-large berth. IU appeared in the tournament most recently in 2016 and in 1983, 1994, 1995 and 2002 and are 3-5 all-time.
  • The NCAA Tournament games will serve as a homecoming of sorts for Yeaney who hails from nearby Portland, Ore. Yeaney, who played high school at St. Mary's Academy, is the program's only player in history who hails from the Beaver State.
  • Senior forward Kym Royster is the only player left on the roster from the 2016 NCAA Tournament appearance. The Newark, Ohio native averaged 7.0 points and 8.0 rebounds in two games as a freshman against Georgia and Notre Dame.
  • A win over Minnesota in the Big Ten Tournament on March 7 gave IU its fourth-straight 20-win season. It's the longest such streak in program history and the ninth 20-win season for the Hoosiers.
  • IU is one of six Big Ten programs to receive an at-large bid along with Iowa, Maryland, Rutgers, Michigan and Michigan State. Five of six teams advanced to the second round.
