First game women's game I've been to this year. Hoping for no holiday hangovers (from the team, too late for me lol)

Gotta bring it in front of Grace. 

[Uspshoosier 46,970]

Great crowd 

[LamarCheeks 19,819]

Usual starters ... 

CMM, Yarden, Mack, Sara and Syd. 

[Stuhoo 82,427]

Pretty sharp quarter 

[mamasa 15,464]

Illinois coach is very much a female Franimal

[Stuhoo 82,427]

Probably want Scalia to get more than…

Zero-nada-nothing 

[mamasa 15,464]

I really miss Berger and Cardano-Hillary

[mamasa 15,464]

Garzon looks frustrated 

[Todd41 734]

Interesting run with Holmes at 4 and Lily at 5 near the end of the second.  Will we see more of that in the second half?

[LamarCheeks 19,819]

Had a 12-point lead at one point, cut to six at halftime 

IU 37, Illinois 31

Mack: 15 points (6-for-8 shooting)

CMM: 10 points (4-for-5 shooting)

We're 1 for 6 from distance (Scalia, after making 8 vs. BGSU is 0-2 so far today and hasn't scored)

Garzon ALWAYS looks frustrated. When she hits a big three she walks away looking frustrated

Outside of Moore-McNeil, our guards have been awful today. 

[LamarCheeks 19,819]

Almost through three quarters and have 2 points total from Syd and Sara. 

No bueno.
