No. 11 Ohio State women ease by Indiana 83-59 to advance to the Big Ten
Tournament quarterfinals
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) --- Jaloni Cambridge had 19 points, eight rebounds and five
assists, Chance Gray added 18 points, and No. 11 Ohio State eased past Indiana
83-59 on Thursday in the second round of the Big Ten Tournament.
Ohio State (25-6), a No. 5 seed, advances to play 19th-ranked Minnesota in the
quarterfinals on Friday. The Buckeyes secured their fifth straight season with
25-plus wins.
Cambridge and Gray combined for 10 of Ohio State's points during a 12-0 run to
take the first double-digit lead of the game at 24-14. The Buckeyes' lead did
not drop below eight points the rest of the half and Gray's 3-pointer with 20
seconds left made it 36-24 at the break.
Ohio State added a 10-0 run early in the third quarter for a 17-point
advantage. The Buckeyes led by as many as 30 points, 81-51, with three minutes
remaining in the game.
Kennedy Cambridge had 14 points and Elsa Lemmil grabbed 13 rebounds to go with
six points, five assists and three blocks for Ohio State. Gray made four of
Ohio State's 10 3-pointers --- a game after the Buckeyes sank a program-record
18 3s in an 87-68 win against then-No. 15 Michigan State on Sunday.
Maya Makalusky led Indiana (18-14) with 21 points and five 3-pointers. Shay
Ciezki added 12 points and Nevaeh Caffey scored 10.
