After coming back home from the Bahamas, Indiana Hoosiers women's basketball was back in action versus the Maine Black Bears with a 79-63 win.

The Battle 4 Atlantis trip was a true test for the Hoosiers as they suffered a 30-point loss to North Carolina in the Battle 4 Atlantis final, but they needed a much needed regroup and Maine was the perfect opponent.

Indiana (5-3) won by 25 points without senior star Sydney Parrish who suffered a knee injury in Indiana’s win against Baylor in the Battle 4 Atlantis on Nov. 23.

Chloe Moore-McNeil and Lilly Meister took over the game with dominating performances at both ends of the floor.

Moore-McNeil finished with 22 points on 8-for-10 shooting, and added four rebounds along with four assists. Meister had 18 points and a team high in rebounds with 9 total.

Indiana will be back in action on Wednesday evening against Southern Indiana in Assembly Hall. The contest will stream on Big Ten+.
