BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Teri Moren conducted from her feet on the Branch McCracken Court sidelines, eyes wide and intense, a white sheet curled like a baton in her left hand, rising to her toes as her Indiana Hoosiers ran a play.
She gestured, leaned and shouted instructions.
The Hoosiers cut, passed, screened and delivered.
Ali Patberg's resulting fourth-quarter three-pointer didn't decide Saturday's 85-51 NCAA tourney opening-round victory over Charlotte at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.
The outcome was decided long before, when No. 3-seed IU rocked No. 14-seed Charlotte with a 22-2 run spanning the first and second quarters to take control they never lost.
