Solid win. Everyone scored! Some of the 'role' players stepped up their game. Dorkas seemed to be everywhere. She wasn't scoring, but my goodness, 16 boards is a bit much, even for Kareem. In her interview after the game, she also acknowledged her unselfishness (don't think she did it deliberately), but saying, 'well, I wasn't scoring, so figured I'd grab some rebounds', or somesuch. Great attitude, and others stepped up their scoring pace. Also wish to note that She-Bron was working within the system, instead of trying to 'take over' the game. It worked much better for the team. Other frosh were playing way above their years. Clutch 3's when the other team figured they weren't a threat, and left them alone. Give Minny credit, they scrapped back, but tOSU simply had too much firepower. go Bucks!

The Ohio State women’s basketball team came out of the gates firing Friday, using a strong start to advance to the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament.

The Buckeyes (20-11, 13-7 Big Ten) pulled away early and never looked back, topping No. 19 Iowa (23-7, 14-5) 87-66.

Ohio State jumped out to a 22-3 lead to open the game as it dominated the opening frame. The Buckeyes shot a red-hot 67 percent from the field and beyond the arc in the quarter.

Freshman guard Kierstan Bell was scorching in the opening quarter, scoring 11 of her team-high 16 points. She hit 3-of-4 3s in the opening frame before making just one of her last six attempts.

Sophomore forward Dorka Juhasz attained her fifth double-double in her last six games as she finished with 15 points and 14 rebounds. Juhasz has snagged double-digit rebounds in her past six outings.

The Buckeye bench was dominant despite freshman forward Rebeka Mikulasikova’s absence, outscoring the Hawkeye bench 27-9. Bell and sophomore guard Janai Crooms stepped up in her place, as Crooms finished with nine points and a game-high six assists.

Ohio State controlled the glass, securing a 43-27 rebounding advantage.

Iowa’s offense was spearheaded by senior guard Kathleen Doyle, who finished with a team-high 16 points on 6-of-18 shooting.

Senior Makenzie Meyer and redshirt junior guard Alexis Sevillian each added 13 points.

In the next round the Buckeyes will take on rival Michigan, which also pulled an upset win against No. 11 Northwestern 67-59 Friday.

The Ohio State-Michigan semifinal matchup tips off at 8:55 p.m. Saturday night in Indianapolis.

This team is fun to watch. They have a lot of players that are tough to guard, Greene, Bell, and Crooms can all create shots for themselves and their teammates. Dorka is solid inside, and the four of them are all freshmen and sophomores. They just blew a ranked Iowa team out of the gym last night, got up by 20 early and led by 34 late in the third quarter.

Hopefully they continue to play well against the skunk-women-weasels tonight.
