NOTES
- Indiana and Oregon met once this season in a late January matchup in Eugene. The Hoosiers fell in the game on the first part of their west coast road swing, 54-47, at Matthew Knight Arena.
- The Hoosiers are tabbed as the No. 9 seed in the 2025 TIAA Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament. They have appeared as the No. 9 seed four times (1996, 2004, 2005, 2007) and are 2-4 all-time. Overall, Indiana holds a 23-31 record in the Big Ten Tournament, which began in 1995.
- Graduate student guard Sydney Parrish scored a team-high 20 points as Indiana throttled Purdue, 77-57. It was the 13th-straight win overall against the in-state rival and third-straight 20-plus point victory for Indiana in the series. Junior guard Shay Ciezki had 18 points in the victory while junior guard Yarden Garzon added 15 points. IU shot 52.8 percent from the floor.
- Three Hoosiers were part of the All-Big Ten postseason teams announced by the league on Tuesday. Junior guard Yarden Garzon was named the conference’s second team from the coaches and the media votes. Graduate student guard Chloe Moore-McNeil picked up an honorable mention nod from both polls and graduate student guard Sydney Parrish was named honorable mention by the media. It marks multiple All-Big Ten honors for all three Hoosiers, as Garzon and Moore-McNeil are now three-time All-Big Ten honorees while Parrish is now a two-time selection.
- Junior guard Yarden Garzon took over as the program’s all-time career leader in 3-pointers made in Sunday’s win at Purdue. She drained three in the effort to now hold a career total of 208, which surpassed Kris McGrade’s 206 made 3-pointers from 1991-94.
