A breakthrough in Bloomington?

This week: Home vs. Michigan at 2 p.m. Saturday

Last week: 5-0 in the Lancer Invite in Riverside, Calif.

Look ahead: Coach Barry King said the Hoosiers must stick to what has sparked their eight-game winning streak — their defense. This game is significant to the Hoosiers, given that the Wolverines denied them an NCAA Tournament berth last season.

They said it: Senior utility player Kara Butler and her class have never beaten Michigan, and now is the opportunity to do so, she said.

“Oh yeah, for sure,” Butler said. “We’re ready to take them. Being a senior — there are five of us — we want to do this together. We’ve come so far in the past three years to get to this point. I know we’ll be able to capitalize on it.”
