NOTES
- Senior forward Mackenzie Holmes has been named the co-Big Ten Player of the Week for her performances for Indiana against Michigan State and Nebraska last week. Holmes picks up her second player of the week award this season and the fifth overall in her career. The Gorham, Maine native averaged 27.0 points and 11.0 rebounds while shooting 64.5 percent (20-for-31) from the floor while adding 3.0 blocks and 1.0 steals per outing while also shooting 73.7 percent from the free throw line.
- Indiana has won two-straight in the series against Northwestern, most recently a 69-58 win at home last season (Feb. 17, 2022). The two teams have met just once in the regular season for the last three years.
- Accuracy from the floor has been one of Indiana's strong suits this season, compiling a 50.6 percent clip from the floor, tops in the Big Ten and third overall in the country. Helping add to that percentage is one of the nation's best shooters in Mackenzie Holmes, who is third in the nation in field goal percentage (68.2).
- Ninth year head coach Teri Moren picked up her 185th victory at the helm of the Hoosiers on Sunday in the overtime win against Nebraska, pulling closer to the all-time coaching win record in school history. She needs three more victories to tie Jim Izard's 188 wins that he amassed over 12 seasons. She is already the program's all-time winningest coach in Big Ten play, pulling in 85 victories in league play.
