Indiana women’s basketball kicked off their holiday break on a high note, defeating Butler 67-50 earlier this afternoon in Assembly Hall. The win improves the fourth-ranked Hoosiers’ overall record to 12-0 (2-0 Big Ten) and locks up their third undefeated non-conference campaign under head coach Teri Moren.
Today’s game was a bit strange. Don’t know if it was the 1pm midweek start or what, but Indiana committed six turnovers in the first quarter, and nearly all of them were preventable. A pass to nobody here, an overthrow there, a weird held ball situation. The first five minutes or so were some of the ugliest the Hoosiers have played all season but they got it together and ended up winning this one fairly handily.
