GOING BACK TO CALI
Indiana's trip to the West Coast was a bit of a bump in the road for the Hoosiers, falling in both contests at No. 9 Stanford (3-2) and at No. 11 California (3-1). All IU goals were scored by California residents, however. Jaclyn Zamudio (Los Gatos) netted both Indiana goals at Stanford and Katie Griswold (Solana Beach) scored IU's lone goal in Berkeley.
RANKING IN THE B1G
IU is tied for first among Big Ten schools in shutouts (2), ranks second in scoring margin (1.29) and assists (17), and third in scoring average (2.75) and goals scored (17).
100 AND COUNTING
Head coach Amy Robertson tallied her 100th career win as the Hoosiers beat Ball State, 4-0, on Saturday, Sept. 3. In her 12th season at Indiana, Robertson owns a 101-108 mark.
HOOSIERS IN THE POLL

B1G DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK, x2

Moeljadi earned the same honor the previous week for tying the career mark. Her offensive efforts have been huge for IU, as well, as she netted three goals against Ball State and Missouri State.
