Indiana Basketball Claims 78-62 Victory Over Washington

Indiana men’s basketball is showing marked improvement as they secured a dominant 78-62 victory over Washington, marking their fourth win in five games. The Hoosiers, now 18-11 overall and 9-9 in the Big Ten, took control early, leading for over 37 minutes, with Malik Reneau scoring a season-high 22 points. This victory is significant for Indiana's NCAA Tournament hopes, especially with other bubble teams faltering. Indiana's recent success has been attributed to a more relaxed playing style following head coach Mike Woodson's announcement of his departure. The team has benefitted from a focus on their frontcourt, with both Reneau and Luke Goode contributing significantly to the scoring. With this win, Indiana is positioning itself favorably as they head into the final games before the Big Ten Tournament.
