Senior forward Georgie Jones played eight minutes in the game against Virginia on Thursday before tearing her ACL and ending her season.
This loss means the Hoosiers will lose another post player and co-captain of the team.
The Hoosiers are just six games in with a record of 2-4.
A story in Monday's IDS will provide more details on the injury and how it will affect the team.
Below is the IU Athletics release on Jones:
