Looks like the ladies will be facing a tough test in number 1 seed North Carolina State who is 22-2 on the season. That game starts @ 6 pm tomorrow on ESPN2.
Best of luck to the Hoosiers!

Big ten has 25% of the teams in sweet 16 and hoosiers were 2nd place in big ten. They are the real deal and set up to be better next year!

Drove home from Florida today so didn’t get updates on this until it was all over. What a great story for them this year. I’m sure many had them getting knocked out in this game.

Bring on AZ. There is a girl on AZ that transfered from IU. She was a freak athlete but got injured and wasn't fitting into the game like she wanted.
Hoosiers bring the defense like they have been and they will be hard to beat. NC State was no pushover.
I think Maryland is prime for taking it all. That team is crazy good and they lost 100% of their starters from the year before. That is incredible.

Here's a little Hoosier basketball history if anyone is interested:
The Patberg girl has roots in my hometown of Huntingburg. Her father went to Southridge HS and was a starting guard (along with his twin brother) on the basketball team that went to state in 85 and 86. That was in the era of the Marion machine coached by Bill Green. We drew them in the first round both years and got shellacked, but I honestly think it could have been worse. Maybe Green took it easy on us? If I remember correctly, Marion won three state titles in a row. Marion had Jay Edwards and Lyndon Jones, among other D1 recruits. I honestly think they could have competed against college teams. I can still remember sitting in MSA when they took the floor in their purple and gold striped warm ups. I thought we were dead.
1985 was a team will all underclassmen that weren't expected to make it out of the legendary Southridge sectional. Well, we did and went on to beat Evansville Bosse and the L&M team with Oliphant and Patterson. I don't remember the other teams along the way.

I lived between Anderson and Marion. I was just getting into sports and those Marion teams were the real deal.
My highschool was small and played sectional in the wigwam. A great experience growing up. I miss the excitement of high school sports. We had a good football school in my day. We would have streets shut down during the games and a neighbor would shoot off a cannon on every score. Packed stands. My kids go to BNL, the excitement of basketball is a shadow of what it was in the 90's and earlier.

Sorry to see the IU women lose last night, but they had a great season.
Congrats to the team and the coaches.

My kids go to BNL, the excitement of basketball is a shadow of what it was in the 90's and earlier. You nailed it. We live in rural New Albany and have season tickets for basketball. The student section at home games is just a bit more than non-existent. It was a little livelier during the Romeo Langford years, but still NOTHING compared to my little 2A school in the 80's. Almost shameful to be honest. In my humble opinion as a parent, kids just have to many activities that take too much dedication. My daughter has swim practice five days a week, even when there is a home varsity basketball game. When and where I grew up, I don't think Good Friday services that conflicted with basketball! |

Ali Patburg was raised in Columbus, and was Miss Basketball her senior year. She was recruited and went to Notre Dame, but got hurt, was red-shirted and transferred to IU. My wife used to be her and her younger sister's nanny when they were pretty young. I know her dad (but haven't seen him in years) and have met his twin. |

Beermaker, I was an assistant coach at Marion for a few years WAY back when. Green, use to tell me stories about Edwards and Jones. Green said the best athlete on that team was a guy that ran track at Wake Forest I believe.
We have the largest high school gym in the world which is all fine, but when you only bring in 500 fans on a Friday night that doesnt look to great.
