The Butler University women’s basketball team snapped a three-game losing streak with a 59-53 win over Creighton University at Hinkle Fieldhouse on Jan. 19. The Bulldogs improved to 4-4 in Big East play and 12-8 on the season with the victory.
Butler got off to a strong start to the game, outscoring Creighton 14-3 in the first five minutes and 22-9 in the first quarter. That impressive start would prove to be crucial for the team, as the Bluejays would go on to outscore the Bulldogs in each of the final three quarters.
