IUWBB vs Eastern Illinois – Thursday 11.09.23 @ 7:00

[HoosierHoopster 6,811]

Good grief what a blowout

[GloryDays 5,913]

Is Currie Welks hurt or just that far behind?

[Class of '66 Old Fart 83,937]

After 3, Hoosiers lead 77-32.

Mack at 19p and her move into 2nd place on the all-time scoring list will likely not happen until Sunday at Stanford.

Lalani Ellis led EIU with 21p and 8r in its season opener.  Tonight she has 4p and 3r and has only taken 3 shots.

[Stuhoo 79,703]

And Bargesser has incredible vision. If she can become a respectable jump shooter (she’s not close yet) she will 100% be first team All-B1G

[Stuhoo 79,703]

You know it’s a blowout when Wisne plays in the 3rd quarter.

Though to her credit Wisne seems to be in much much better shape than last year.

No mention of any injury on the availability report.

And just like that she enters the game!

Our Sunday game at Stanford will be Stanford's first regular season game.  In exhibitions they defeated Dominican 126-53 and beat Hawaii 87-40.  Tipoff is scheduled for 5:OO ET and televised on ESPN.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 83,937]

FT shooting has been absolutely horrendous (2-11) and that's the kind of stat that could cost us in a game against a team like Stanford.

 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 83,937]

96-43 final score.   CTM's 400th career victory.

Good bench contributions.  Bargesser 15p; 2r; 3a in 23 min.         Beaumont 9p; 2a in 19 min.        Lamendola 5r and 1a in 16 min.  She did pick up 3 fouls and looks like she's going to be foul prone as a freshman.    Sandvik 5p; 3r; 4a in 22 min.     Mildly surprised Lilly only saw 10 min. of action.

The non-starters:

Currie-Jelks looks pretty unplayable. Wisne not only looked quicker than prior years, she actually looked quicker than Currie-Jelks.

Beaumont looks great. She’s gonna be a featured player at IU, and is playable right away.

LaMendola plays with swag and vision, but right now she’s a mess.

Sandvik has improved a lot. A good athlete and way more confident. She’ll get minutes too.

Bargesser is clearly our sixth player—she’s so quick with the ball, passes so well, and defends.

Meister was kinda meh to me. She looked like the same player she was as a freshman.

[TTT 895]

Jelks had wisdom teeth pulled this week and missed some practice pre-game per T.M.

Post game when T.Moren was asked what it meant to her to get her 400th college basketball win?  T. Moren stated “it means we are going to shoot 400 free throws.”

She was in a boot a couple weeks ago but not sure on the progress

Good summary but I’m not down on CurrieJelks.

Beaumont looked really good. Sandvik surprised. Lamendola will be fine. Great fundamentals for the entire team. Defensive positioning, hands, switching. Just good fundamental BB.

That can explain a lot. Thanks

Yeah, but she was just 9-10, she missed one. Geez

Concur on the summary and hoping Jelks was just a bit off.  
 

on a personal note, got to watch the game on my business trip that brought me into Fort Wayne.  Nice to be close compared to N.C.
