Special for IndyStar
INDIANAPOLIS — Ali Patberg loves the jokes — she said so herself on the Big Ten Network set. She’s heard them all. Asked if her grandkids are going to be attending her games this year, Patberg laughed and let out a sarcastic “Wow!”
Maybe no grandkids quite yet for the 25-year-old, but she’s been in college seven years now, and finally it’s Ali Patberg’s last year. No really, it is.
“This is the last go around with Ali Patberg,” IU women’s basketball head coach Teri Moren said at Big Ten basketball Media Day.
