Purdue Women’s Basketball: Ohio State 77, Purdue 56
Marc Lebryk-USA TODAY SportsPurdue dropped a big opportunity for a final marquee win in the regular season as they fell to Ohio State on senior night by a score of 77-56.
With both teams amid a two-game losing streak, this game was very important for both squads for their NCAA Tournament seeding. Ohio State was the team that seemed to want it more coming out of the gates and had a balanced attack with 7 Buckeyes scoring in the first quarter to take an 18-9 lead. The offensive struggles continued for the Boilermakers as they were unable to get much going to start the game and went 4-17 from the floor in the first.
