A tale of two halves for IU’s perimeter shooting

For a half, it looked like IU was on its way to setting a program record for made 3-pointers in a half.

The Hoosiers were a scorching 14-for-26 from distance in the opening 20 minutes, good for 53.8 percent.

The final 20 minutes, however, were a different story.

Indiana missed its first 16 tries from the perimeter and shot a dismal 1-for-20 from on 3-pointers in the second half.
