Sunday night saw the Ball State women’s basketball squad defeat the ACC’s Pittsburgh Panthers 68-66 in a competitive overtime game. The Cardinals’ statement non-conference victory marks the program’s first ever win against an ACC foe, and furthers their already successful start to the 2022-23 campaign.
On the heels of a trip to the 2022 MAC tournament championship, Ball State has lived up to its second-place selection in the conference preseason poll.
In Brady Sallee’s 11th season as Ball State’s head coach, he has led his team to an impressive 8-2 record in its first ten games. This is the program’s best performance through its first ten contests since 2017-18, a season which saw 25 wins and a Women’s NIT appearance.
