Michigan 88 Indiana 76

Michigan got a much needed win against Indiana Wednesday night.  The Wolverines jumped out to a 15 point lead at half time then held off an Indiana rally in the second half.  Michigan had a balanced scoring: 19 points from Carmen Reynolds, 18 from Kate Thompson,  15 from Rachel Sheffer, 14 from Courtney Boylan, 11 from Veronica Hicks and 9 from Jenny Ryan.

From annarbor.com:
The Michigan women's basketball  team thought it would get some open perimeter looks against Indiana’s zone defense on Wednesday night.
The Wolverines were right. And they hit a season-high 13 shots from 3-point range in an 88-76 win at Crisler Arena.
Junior Carmen Reynolds made 5 of 7 shots from behind the arc on her way to a team-high 19 points and sophomore Kate Thompson who made 4 of 5 long-distance attempts, finished with 18 points.

“We were able to pretty much, as a team, get whatever shot we wanted to it felt like,” Reynolds said. “We were good about passing on the perimeter. Everyone was getting shots. Everything was open, it felt like.”
