Class of '66 Old Fart Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 The Scarlet O'Hara's Johannson's Letter's Knights (12- 8) (3 - 5) visit Assembly Hall. The Lady Hoosiers (12 -8) (4 - 4) are 8-0 in games played in Assembly Hall this year, making them the only team in the Big Ten with an unblemished home record this season. It is the second time in three years that IU has won its first eight home games of the season. Tyra Buss has scored in double figures in every game this season and in 24 straight games dating back to last year, the longest such streak for an IU player since Quacy Barnes scored in double digits in 37-consecutive games to end the 1996-97 season and to start 1997-98. She also leads the team in scoring (18.6 ppg), assists (4.5 apg) and steals (1.9 spg). Amanda Cahill is averaging 16.1 points and 9.1 rebounds per game in Big Ten play making her one of just four players in the league averaging those totals in conference play. 7:00 E. T.

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted January 28, 2016 Author Posted January 28, 2016 Ugly shooting in the 1st Q by both teams but our Ladies lead 11 - 8. We're shooting 21% and Rutgers 28%. Buss with 7 pts. and 4 reb.; Cahill and Gassion with 3 reb. each but Cahill picked up 2 fouls. Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted January 28, 2016 Author Posted January 28, 2016 Strong 2nd Q for our Ladies and at the half they lead 31 - 17. Shooting up to 29%; controlling the boards by a 21 - 14 margin and taking care of the ball with only 6 TO's while Rutgers has committed 11. 8 assists on 8 made shots -- if only the men could have been half that good last night!! And the ladies are 10 for 10 from the foul line. Buss with 16 pts. (4 3-pointers) and 4 reb.; 6 pts. for Anderson; Gassion 4 reb. mamasa and JaybobHoosier 2 Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted January 28, 2016 Author Posted January 28, 2016 Rutgers came out firing in the 3rd Q and have made it a ballgame but our Lady Hoosiers are still leading 45 -38. Buss with 20 pts.; Anderson 7; McBride 6. Still only shooting 29% from the floor but have hit 7 of 17 on 3's and 14 of 16 free throws. Anderson has attempted 8 free throws by herself; Rutgers as a team has only 9 attempts. [Didn't we just see something similar last night?] mamasa and JaybobHoosier 2 Quote

JaybobHoosier Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Great job ladies at staying unbeaten at home. Really like the core of this team, and will bring everyone back next year (hoping no one transfers out). Keep it up! mamasa 1 Quote
mamasa Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 We've got some nice talent coming in (the girl from Heritage Christian is tough! Can't remember her name, but....). The conditioning is getting better with the ladies. I'm really happy with the overall program. Kind of feels like what Coach Wilson is doing with football- building her team from the ground up, steadily attracting better talent. Coach Moren knows how to coach and is getting her players to buy into it. Naturalhoosier, Class of '66 Old Fart, LockdownD and 1 other 4 Quote
