Indiana University Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s Basketball hosted Media Days Wednesday Afternoon<\/strong>
The Indiana University Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s Basketball teams kicked off the 2023-24 season by hosting the school\u2019s Media Days at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall Wednesday Afternoon.\u00a0Head Coaches Mike Woodson and Teri Moren took questions from the media. Men\u2019s Basketball players Xavier Johnson and Trey Galloway spoke along with Women\u2019s Basketball players Sydney Parrish and Sara Scalia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the Hoosiers Men\u2019s team, a lot of new faces 10 new players with six scholarship and four walk On\u2019s but Coach Woodson said that it was a very productive summer. \u201cit’s been a very productive summer, meaning I had to go in and have knee surgery, get my knee replaced, and along with my staff, I hobbled around this summer, and we were able to build our basketball team back with six newcomers and scholarship guys, and then we’ve got four walk-ons, so we’ve got 10 new people to our ballclub. A lot of work that’s got to be done before we open up against Marian here in our practice game\u201d. Among the new faces is star Freshman Mackenize Mgbako who decommitted from Duke and chose the Hoosiers. Woodson knows that the expectations are very high for his top recruit. \u201cOnly time will tell. He’s capable of putting the basketball in the hole. He’s shown that this summer. We’ve got to help him as coaches and put him in the best position possible to be successful and help us. I’m expecting big things from him, but I’m not putting a lot of pressure on him. He’s a freshman\u201d Woodson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Woodson named Xavier Johnson and Trey Galloway the captains of this team and being a team captain under Hall of Fame Coach Bob Knight. Woodson will take the same approach as Knight did with him. \u201cI’m hard on captains. I’ve always been that way. Bob Knight was hard on me as a captain when I was here. You’re not given that title just to be given it. You’ve got to earn it, and you’ve got to be held accountable in terms of not only putting yourself in position to help us win, but getting guys to play at a high level around you. That’s important\u201d Woodson Said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hoosier Women\u2019s team is coming off the best season in school history with a Big Ten Regular Season Championship along with a number 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Hoosiers are led by Mackenize Holmes and Coach Moren has seen the progress the Gorham, Maine native has made from her freshman season to her fifth and final season. The best part of my job is having players come in as freshman and watching their evolution as people. Mack is a great example of that\u201d Moren Said. The Hoosiers added Freshman Lenee Beaumont and Jules LaMendola along with Transfer Sharneece Currie-Jelks from Tennessee-Martin and Coach Moren knows that they are expected to help from the moment they got to campus. \u201cThe three kids we brought in are gonna have to help us and they\u2019re going to have to grow up quicker\u2026 We\u2019re gonna need the three of them from the beginning\u201d Moren said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hoosiers lost Grace Berger and Alyssa Geary to graduation. Berger was the 7th<\/sup> pick in the WNBA Draft by the Indiana Fever and just completed her rookie season. This year’s Hoosiers are happy for their former teammate and got to see her play and support her over the summer at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.  South Central Indiana News Network got to speak with Lenee Beaumont, Jules LaMendola, Yarden Garzon, Chloe Moore-McNeil, Sydney Parrish, Sara Scalia and Mackenzie Holmes in separate interviews. The players called the trip to Greece a \u201cOnce in a lifetime experience\u201d. They are excited for the season and know the expectations are the same with a tough schedule ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indiana spent last weekend in Evanston for their Big Ten opener at No. 3 Northwestern on Friday, Sep. 15 and a neutral site game against Penn on Saturday, Sep. 16.

Sunday against James Madison will be Indiana’s first home game of the year after starting with their first eight on the road or at neutral sites. Seven different Hoosiers have scored a goal this season: Sarah Charley, In\u00e9s Garcia Prado, Jemima Cookson, Yip van Wonderen, Maggie Carter, Meghan Dillon and Anna Mozeleski. <\/a><\/dfn>Charley leads the way with three goals while Garcia Prado and van Wonderen are the team’s second leading goal scorers with two.

Loveridge has made 20 saves while McNally has made 17 through the first seven games of 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michigan State enters the weekend with a 1-5 overall record and an 0-1 mark in conference play. The Spartans opened the year with a 3-1 win at Boston University and have lost five in a row since. While the record may not look great, the Spartans have played a handful of some good times very closely. Their most recent game was a 2-1 overtime loss vs. No. 12 Ohio State. They also fell 3-2 in overtime at home against Stanford. Emma O’Neill is the Spartans’ offensive leader with three goals scored and 13 shots taken. Lulu Fulton, Lena Kassel and Kim Smit have all found the back of the cage with one goal each. Michigan State leads the all-time series 23-6, but the series has been very competitive as of late.

The Indianapolis Indians offense continued its dominance over the Rochester Red Wings with another double-digit outpouring behind four multi-hit performances, Canaan Smith-Njigba\u2019s second home run in as many days and Joe Perez\u2019s four-RBI showing in Wednesday afternoon\u2019s 14-11 win at Victory Field. Smith-Njigba, one of the International League\u2019s hottest hitters in the month of September, quickly got things started for Indianapolis (68-76, 35-35) with its second first-inning homer in as many days. The long ball, which flew 456 feet out to right-center field, extended the outfielder\u2019s home run streak after he launched a tiebreaking two-run shot in Tuesday\u2019s 19-1 rout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rochester (64-78, 30-39) tied the game in the top of the fourth inning against Aaron Shortridge (W, 1-0), who was promoted from Double-A Altoona on Tuesday for his Triple-A debut. The right-hander tossed 5.0 one-hit innings with four walks and three strikeouts and exited the game in line for the win after a three-run homer by Perez gave Indy the lead back in the bottom of the fourth. The Indians continued to pour on runs, following Perez\u2019s three-run blast with three additional crooked frames. A pair of errors and three consecutive RBI singles by the bottom half of the batting order quickly gave Indianapolis an 8-1 lead through five. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Indians continued to pour on runs, following Perez\u2019s three-run blast with three additional crooked frames. A pair of errors and three consecutive RBI singles by the bottom half of the batting order quickly gave Indianapolis an 8-1 lead through five. A walk and four consecutive singles by the Red Wings in the top of the sixth against Thomas Hatch, who was optioned by Pittsburgh on Tuesday, brought Rochester closer, but the five-run margin didn\u2019t last long, with Indianapolis plating six runs in its next two half innings at the plate. Smith-Njigba bookended the scoring with RBI singles in this sixth and seventh frames, the latter following Nick Gonzales\u2019 second triple in as many games that plated a pair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the Indians leading 14-4 in the top of the ninth inning, the Red Wings rallied for seven runs, all scoring with two outs. The first four runs scored on four consecutive hits before Richie Martin homered to left field to cap the scoring. With the potential tying run in the on-deck circle, Travis MacGregor (S, 3) entered in relief of John O\u2019Reilly and recorded the final out of the game. Perez\u2019s four RBI marked a season high while Gonzales and Smith-Njigba finished the day with three hits apiece. Gonzales is now tied for the IL lead with eight triples. The Indians, who have scored 33 runs in their past 16 offensive innings, will look to take a 3-0 series lead tonight at 6:35pm at Victory Field. RHP Jared Jones (4-4, 4.77) will take the mound for Indy against RHP Roddery Mu\u00f1oz (2-5, 6.23).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
