IU women’s basketball starting point guard Andrea Newbauer is out indefinitely with a left wrist injury she suffered prior to the team’s loss at Purdue on Wednesday.
Miller and his bench picked up technical fouls within a minute of each other in the second half that allowed Ohio State to extend its lead to 10 points. The Buckeyes survived the ensuing IU comeback effort to beat the Hoosiers 70-56 in Assembly Hall.
Finding themselves down just six at halftime, the IU women’s basketball team was in striking distance of an upset of No. 14 Purdue Thursday night in West Lafayette, hoping to beat its rival for the first time in eight tries.
When the IU women’s basketball team plays No. 14 Purdue at 6:30 p.m. today in West Lafayette, it will be looking to snap several dubious streaks against one of the Big Ten’s toughest teams.
The 5-foot-7-inch guard followed that performance the next night by setting a new career high, pouring in 54 points on 17-36 shooting from the field and 19-21 from the foul line to knock off a previously undefeated Goreville team, 73-64. Her 54 points also form a new school record.
IU (10-10, 1-6) struggled from the perimeter, going 2-17 (11.8 percent) from beyond the 3-point line. It is the fourth time the Hoosiers have made under three 3-point field goals in a game this season. They have lost all four of those games.
Miller and his IU women’s basketball team will have a chance to sweep the season series against Northwestern today at 7 p.m. at Welsh-Ryan Arena.
Once again, Indiana hung with No. 23 Michigan, one of the Big Ten’s best teams. Once again, the Hoosiers were doomed by poor shooting performance and had too much ground to make up, too late.
Fading away with a hand in her face, Sinclair launched a 3-point shot that swished through the net and became the 23rd Hoosier to ever score 1,000 career points.
The Hoosiers (10-8, 1-4) will look to fix the half-by-half inconsistency that has plagued them all season when they get another crack at No. 23 Michigan (15-3, 4-1) at 7 p.m. today in Assembly Hall.
Senior forward Aulani Sinclair became the 23rd Hoosier to join the 1,000-point club Sunday, but IU lost 56-46 to Michigan State.
IU Coach Curt Miller’s nightmare came true for the second-straight game Thursday night when IU (10-7, 1-3) lost to Ohio State (11-7, 1-4) 68-45 at Value City Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
Senior forward Aulani Sinclair enters Thursday's game at Ohio State eight points shy of 1,000 for her career and will try to help the Hoosiers (10-6, 1-2) get back on track against the buckeyes (10-7, 0-4) at 7 p.m. today in Value City Arena, Columbus, Ohio.
So, while he said he was disappointed by Thursday night’s 67-38 home loss to No. 23 Nebraska, IU Coach Curt Miller wasn’t devastated.
On Dec. 5, 2010, the last time senior forward Aulani Sinclair played against Nebraska at Assembly Hall, the unranked Hoosiers knocked off the then-No. 19 Cornhuskers 67-61. It will be much more of a challenge for Sinclair to repeat that feat as a banged-up IU plays No. 23 Nebraska at 6:30 p.m.Thursday in Assembly Hall.
Seniors Sasha Chaplin and Jasmine McGhee are game-time decisions for Thursday's game against Nebraska after being limited in practice the past two days.
Some time in October, or maybe even before that, IU women’s basketball players dubbed fifth-year senior center Sasha Chaplin “grandma."
