Minnesota women's basketball beat Northwestern yesterday. With the win, the Gophers are 12-6 on the season and 4-3 in Big Ten play.
Minnesota began the season with four straight wins against mediocre competition before losses to Auburn and Duke. They rebounded to win four of their last five non conference games to finish the non conference 8-3.
Big Ten play so far has been mixed. Currently the Gophers are sixth in conference play behind two teams they lost to-Purdue and Michigan. Each of their wins has been against a team currently in the bottom half of the conference.
