Purdue's women's team has two significant weaknesses: they do not have a center who is a scoring threat, and they do not have a consistent three-point shooter. Tonight, Nebraska took advantage of both weaknesses, running out to an early lead and never looking back as they held off the Boilers, 62-61, handing Purdue just their second home loss in eleven games.
When last we left Sharon Versyp's squad, they hadn't lost since December 3 and were preparing for conference play ... fast-forward to tonight and not much has changed. The Boilers still haven't lost since December 3, and thanks partly to some interesting bounces, partly to an unbalanced schedule, and partly to clutch play, they're now alone in first place at 5-0, thanks to Northwestern's upset of Ohio State in Evanston tonight.
