Nebraska Defeats Indiana 85-68 in Basketball

The Indiana women's basketball team achieved a dominant 91-57 victory over Bellarmine, marking a season-high score and featuring seven players reaching double digits for the first time in program history. Key performances came from Striplin, who led with 18 points, and Garzon, contributing 16 points, while the Hoosiers shot a remarkable 56.1% from the field. In contrast, the Indiana men's basketball team faced a severe setback, losing 85-68 to Nebraska, which marked their fourth consecutive defeat to the Cornhuskers. Despite a competitive start, Indiana faltered late, scoring only one point in the final 6:50 of the game, leading to significant criticism of their offensive consistency and defensive performance. Head coach Mike Woodson emphasized the need for improved defense and offensive execution, particularly in critical moments. The men’s team looks to regroup in upcoming non-conference matchups after suffering their first Big Ten defeat of the season.
