IUWBB vs Bellarmine - Sunday, 12.15.24 @ 2:00 on B1G+

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

Bellarmine (9-2) their two losses 73-71 to Detroit Mercy and 78-67 to PUke.  They have put up 80+ points in 5 of their wins.  Women will have another full week off before hosting Oakland on the 22nd and then another 6-day break before hosting Wisky.  Probably won't learn anything about Syd's availability until Sunday.  We know Beaumont will be out for an extended period once she has surgery.

Syd dressed and warming up. 

Seth Tow reports after taking a few shots, though, she sat on the bench with assistants while others continued to warm up. Listed as questionable. 

We've got almost two full weeks before our next B1G game, so no rush -- but it might not be a bad idea to get her a couple minutes here and there if she's able to go. 

[LamarCheeks 18,932]

LaMendola remains in first 5. 

No real surprise. 

(Poetic, ain't I?)

From CTM on pre-game radio don't expect Syd to play today.  Sounds like really targeting the 28th vs Wisky for her return. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

I hate it that Syd is out but it is giving Jules a lot more playing time than she would have otherwise had which is a good thing.

17-8 IU. Sounds like we’ve settled into a good offense 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

  27-14 Hoosier lead.      6 different women have already scored for us.

Doing a good job on the boards  with 10 total rebounds to Bell's 2 and 5 of our rebounds have been offensive.  Also have 7 assists on  11  made FG.

Striplin > Meister. Needs to start.

Coach Woodson giving IU Ladies his coaching secrets, but they did not fall it.  Looking good.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

Henna Sandvik with 10 pts. off the bench in 8 minutes and hasn't missed a shot!

[TheWatShot 14,000]

Geez, I stepped out for a minute and Sandvik went and got into double figures too.

Southern Indiana was leading Illinois after the first quarter. Then, much like our game last week, they had a long scoring drought and Illinois surged ahead. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

Women are hitting on all cylinders this afternoon and lead  54-30 at the half.

Pts:  Striplin 15; Sandvik 10; Yarden 8; Shay 6;  Lexi 6            68% FG to Bell's 48%

Reb:   Jules and Striplin each with 4                IU 16-9 rebounding advantage

Asst:  Yarden 5; Shay and Chloe each with 3             15 on 21 made FG

Not watching the game, but the overall “feel” I’m getting feels like seasons past. Good teamwork 

[mamasa 15,305]

Highest scoring game for IU so far at 83 (to 52)

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

Final score  95-61 as the women don't let up in the 2nd half.  Held Bell to 30 pts. in the 1st half and 31 in the 2nd.  One week from today we host Oakland (3-6) at noon.   7 players in double figures.

Starting to feel like Striplin needs more minutes.
