Boilers Pick Up Bounce Back Win In Champaign: Purdue 89, Illinois 67.
After dropping two straight in heartbreaking fashion, Purdue women’s basketball picked up a bounce-back 89-67 win over Illinois in Champaign.
This was one of the most complete games the Boilermakers have played this season considering all of the factors heading into tonight. It was an offensive outburst by the Boilermakers, which hadn’t been seen since their 101 point output against Denver back in mid-December.
After dropping winnable games against Iowa and Indiana both at home, tonight is just what this team needed to get their mojo back. Again, Purdue proves they can beat up on the middle to lower tier of the Big Ten which should be the expected outcome against a team like Illinois.
