Michigan ends IU season, thump Hoosiers 67-40

When IU Coach Miller looks at game film from this past season to use as motivation — that is, showing what not to do — he will have plenty of it featuring Michigan.

The Wolverines beat IU twice in the regular season by an average margin of 17.5 points and made life miserable for the Hoosiers Thursday night at the 2013 Women’s Big Ten Tournament in Hoffman Estates, Ill.

Michigan thumped the Hoosiers 67-40 behind a dominant post game and fast break offense, using big runs at the start of each half to put the Hoosiers behind big in a hurry.

The Wolverines started the game on a 12-0 run as IU missed its first eight shots from the field. Michigan started the second half on a 12-2 run as Kate Thompson hit two threes in the Wovlerines’ first three possessions of the half.

Sophomore guard Nicole Elmblad scored a career high 14 points for the Wolverines.

Senior guard Jasmine McGhee lead IU with 12 points on 5-of-16 shooting and was the only Hoosier to score in double figures.
