Women’s basketball team defeats GVSU
Final Score: 80-70
The Hoosiers defeated Grand Valley State University by 10 points on Thursday night. The Hoosiers had five players in double digits, while GVSU had three players. The Hoosiers were out-rebounded 45 to 34, but forced 20 turnovers in the game. In the second half the Hoosiers only committed 4 more turnovers, improving off the 11 turnovers they committed in the first half.
Halftime update:
The Hoosiers lead by one at the end of the first half, 34-33. Their defense looks much improved from the Lambuth game, but the Hoosiers have had some problems: shooting 9 for 22, and turning the ball over 11 times.
Hope Elam leads the Hoosiers with 11 points. Jasmine Padin leads GVSU in scoring with 14 points.
Pregame Notes:
The IU Women’s basketball team will play its final exhibition game tonight against Division-II foe, Grand Valley State University.
The game should prove rather interesting, as Coach Felisha Legette-Jack has a past with GVSU’s coach Janel Burgess. The two coached together at Michigan State and both share similar coaching philosophies.
Women’s exhibition games are free, so come on out and support your Hoosiers tonight! The tip-off is scheduled for 7 pm.
