Boilers Bounce Back: Purdue 101, Denver 68.

Purdue women’s basketball picked up a much-needed 101-68 win over Denver Sunday afternoon inside Mackey Arena.

After two straight losses during the early portion of Big Ten play, the Boilermakers were reeling and needed a game like this. They certainly delivered today with a 34 point win over the underrated Pioneers of Denver.

Purdue should have expected to do this to Denver, but this performance was another level. The Pioneers were coming off of a 4OT win over Butler on Friday evening in Hinkle Fieldhouse, so they were a slightly formidable opponent.

This is the type of game that can give Purdue some confidence against higher-level competition moving forward if nothing else.
