When Green took her energy to the court, that's when the Illinois State women's basketball team really started to cover some ground.
Green scored 15 first-half points and finished with 24 as ISU defeated Eureka College, 80-54, in the debut of Redbird coach Kristen Gillespie.
Green also contributed 10 rebounds and three blocks after hopping off the exercise bike.
With Eureka's sagging zone defense handing out 3-point shooting opportunites like candy off a parade float, the Redbirds couldn't help but imbibe on occasion and were 7 of 19 from long range.
Green was 1 of 9 from beyond the 3-point arc all last season, but connected on her first three from long range and ended 3 of 4.
