NOTES
- Graduate student forward Mackenzie Holmes scored a season-high 32 points by going 15-for-17 from the floor in an 85-62 win over Minnesota on Wednesday night. Indiana went 58.9 percent from the floor and 45.8 percent from 3-point range, connecting on 11 triples in the victory. Senior guard Sara Scalia also poured in 22 points while hitting five 3-pointers. Senior guard Sydney Parrish added 15 points as Indiana got past Minnesota for the seventh-consecutive time.
- The Hoosiers have owned the series with Purdue as of late, winning nine-in-a-row and 12 of the last 13. In the annual Barn Burner Trophy series, Indiana has secured the rivalry honor for the last eight-straight outings dating back to the 2016-17 season. Purdue leads the all-time Barn Burner series, which began in 1994, 19-11.
- Indiana currently owns one of the nation's best shooting percentages at 51.0 percent per game, which ranks third in the country and leads the Big Ten. They have shot 50 percent or better on nine occasions, including on Wednesday night against Minnesota. IU has also shot 60 percent or better from the floor three times this season.
- Eyes will begin to focus on IU's all-time scoring record, as Holmes closes in on taking over the top spot in the history books. She enters Sunday's game just 124 points shy of Tyra Buss's (2014-18) record of 2,364 points. Through her five seasons, the Gorham, Maine native has collected 2,241 points and is only the second player to score over 2,000 points in her IU career.
