Love the throw back uniforms!  They are both playing with a lot of energy. Would be nice if we'd stop getting all the fouls called against us.

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

When trying to break a press -- don't go backward! 

[TheWatShot 13,977]

Turnovers are going to be a big problem again today. 

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

Need to keep this close. 

Games at Stanford and Iowa got away from us -- and we couldn't get back. 

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

Halftime: IU 37, OSU 32

 

I'll take it!

[FloridaHoosierGirl 4,639]

Good job, ladies!  Come out of the locker room sharp!

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

Certainly didn't expect a 37-32 halftime lead.  Can we sustain it in the second half?

Pts:  Sara 11; Mack 10; Chloe & Yarden 6 each          45% FG;  33% on 3s             OSU-  41% FG;  46% on 3s

Reb:  Mack 6;  Yarden 4; Lexi & Chloe 3 each       We have a 23-14 rebounding advantage

Asst:  Chloe 2 and a bunch with 1 each.     6 on 13 made FG

TOs:   IU-10   OSU-7

Nobody on either team with more than 2 fouls.     3 on each team.

Bargesser and Ladies are playing well.  Bargesser takes a second to long to execute sometimes but she has improved.  Had layup but hesitated and got blocked, passed ball to Scalia for 3 ball to late but Scalia still scored 2 with getting second chance.

OSU coach is telling his team keep up pressure and they are going to get tired.  I think this will backfire because in the end I think OSU will get tired. IU Ladies can run with OSU.
IU Ladies are in it.

[Hoosierfan1901 6,270]

Much better quarter!

[TTT 946]

IU Ladies do not come out flat!

[Stuhoo 80,711]

Outstanding first half.

Defense was excellent, ball movement and offensive confidence very good.

[LockdownD 2,238]

I thought we looked to push the ball especially after they scored. We let them set up the press and walked the ball up. Make the buckeyes work on defense. They’ll get tired.

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

We really need to focus staying in the center of the court to combat their press. We keep passing it into the corners, where we're easily trapped. 

 

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

Missing too many bunnies.

Gotta make those, especially if they're taking the 3 away from us. 

[HoosierX 1,565]

Just turned it on. This team is a walking turnover right now.

[TheWatShot 13,977]

Somebody has to get in front of McMahon. Can't keep giving her straight line drives to the hoop. 

[OliviaPope40 6,514]

Can we get Scalia to help us out on the men's side?

[JerryYeagley23 3,468]

Meister and Lamendaola cannot be in the game at the same time. This is when we really miss Syd. 

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

Our passing is atrocious today. 

[Todd41 723]

Does not look like it is happening today unfortunately
