As Oumou Toure was being interviewed, members of the Butler women’s basketball team dashed in circles around her. As they took part in a halfcourt 2-on-2 game on Hinkle Fieldhouse, they giggled heartily.

“First bucket wins. Check,” Ashanti Thomas said.

“Can you repeat that?” Oumou asked as she chuckled.

This scene took place after Butler defeated Eastern Kentucky University 73-41 at Hinkle Fieldhouse on Nov. 17, improving to 3-0 while dropping Eastern Kentucky to 2-1.
