The Butler women’s basketball team opened the 2018-19 season with a 72-37 home win over Eastern Illinois University on Nov. 9.
Butler started the game hot, scoring a scorching 22 points in the first quarter and ultimately tallying 41 points on 56 percent shooting in the first half.
They started strong, but the team places greater emphasis on finishing, and at times this game, they could have finished better.
