Officials are putting her back on the line to shoot 10 FTs

Hahaha, funny thing is that she shot like 18 FTs today

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,161]

I shouldn't have cracked a joke.  She did take a hit on another court storming incident.

!!!!!! 8 made 3s today

Sara hits her 4th one and IU takes the lead

[LamarCheeks 19,738]

Bargesser and LaMendola both have taken relatively easy shots this quarter -- and hit nothing. 

Like I said -- these guys gotta step up. 

[LamarCheeks 19,738]

Mack not doing a very good job against the double teams -- has thrown two away.

That game had some poor officiating too

[LamarCheeks 19,738]

"Grab a snack and come on back." 

Sigh ... She used that the other night, too. 

[Hoosierfan1901 6,455]

9-12 from the 3!!

[LamarCheeks 19,738]

Geez -- we waited WAY too long to attack on that final possession. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,161]

Strange half.  Killed on the boards and hit 9-12 3s on the road.    39-37 Hoosiers lead.

[Hoosierfan1901 6,455]

Much better 2Q

Outscored PU 17-8 and need to start off the 2H strong

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,161]

Only 7 total fouls called in the 1st half so the 2nd half will likely be ticky-tack time.

 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,161]

Scalia - 12 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists

Garzon - 11 points, 1 assist

Moore-McNeil - 8 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists

[LamarCheeks 19,738]

Peacock leaves so much to be desired. 

The halftime starts with: "We have some injury news to report. Sydney Parrish ..." 

I held my breath. I thought they were gonna say she broke her foot or her ankle or something (thinking they had received some inside info).

But they continued "... is not playing today." 

Well, sh*t -- we already knew that.

As I always said someone will get hurt on a court storm.

OSU did their job.  IU tied for first place in big ten for at least another 30 minutes or so.  Will IU take advantage of opportunity?

I'm surprised one hasn't resulted in a major brawl. 

Players have just lost an emotional, tight game ... and there are bunch of idiots running all around (some probably having partaken of a few adult beverages). Just asking for trouble. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,161]

Subsequent reports on Clark that she was not injured.  Don't like her on the court but one of these days a player is going to get seriously injured and that should not happen.   I know the meltdown we'd have if it ever happened to one of our own.

[Hoosierfan1901 6,455]

Our was pretty much the same last at Mackey, believed IU was up like 31-28 a year ago
