BLOOMINGTON – Teri Moren expressed several concerns following Indiana’s loss to Illinois earlier in the week. Focusing mainly on physicality and effort, Moren made it clear her team needed to step up in those areas to compete with the best. And even though they came up short against one of the top teams in college basketball, IU appeared to make significant strides. Indiana battled hard down the stretch against No. 4 USC on Sunday afternoon, ultimately coming up short 73-66 inside Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. The Hoosiers had some really impressive moments throughout. Indiana’s main noticeable improvement was on the…

BLOOMINGTON – Throughout the season, Indiana women’s basketball has struggled with inconsistency, especially on offense. An upset victory at Iowa earlier in the week looked like a turning point for the Hoosiers. But, the Hoosiers hit another bump in the road Thursday night, as they fell to Illinois 68-54 inside Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. From the opening tip, the first half was a one-sided affair. A combination of Illinois’ physical defense and the offensive tandem of Adalia McKenzie and Kendall Bostic challenged IU. In the half alone, Bostic and McKenzie combined for 26 points out of Illinois’ 35. On the…
