During warmups prior to Indiana women’s basketball’s matchup with Bowling Green, Liz Honegger walked along the sideline and over to the Falcons’ bench. There she received hellos, hugs and well wishes from the Bowling Green staff.
Indiana’s director of basketball operations is wearing Hoosiers crimson now, but her collegiate career began in Bowling Green Falcons orange.
Not unlike head coach Teri Moren, Honegger’s story started in the hallowed gyms that make up Indiana high school basketball. Her accolades at Lafayette Jefferson High School include a first team all-state nod and an Indiana All-Star selection.
Honegger then took her talents to Bowling Green, beginning a highly decorated career under then-Falcons head coach Curt Miller, Moren’s predecessor at Indiana and current head coach of the WNBA’s Los Angeles Sparks.
