Women's Basketball: Ohio shows credentials during big win in Dekalb, Illinois

Ohio women's basketball team celebrates when one of its teammates scores during the Ohio vs. Wilmington game on Nov. 7, 2015.

When senior guard Kiyanna Black took a hard charge Saturday and went down holding her face in the middle of the second quarter of Ohio's game against Northern Illinois in Dekalb, Illinois, many fans back in Athens feared the worst.

But Black jumped back up, shook her head and sprinted back down the floor to help set the offense back up. That toughness has been exemplified by the Bobcats (15-3, 7-0 Mid-American Conference) all season, and it was once again on show when they beat the Huskies, 72-47, for their seventh-straight MAC win.
