The Hoosiers improved to 3-4 against Quad 1 opponents by shutting down a late rally from Washington (13-8; 4-5). The Huskies trailed by 14 points before going on an 11-0 run in the fourth quarter while holding IU without any field goals for more than four minutes.

The IU women ended a three-game skid with a win at Washington, putting the Hoosiers 'back on track' and adding to their March Madness resume.

Two of Indiana women’s basketball’s last three defeats have occurred because of late fourth quarter collapses. On Jan. 19 against No. 4 USC, Indiana held a 4-point lead in the final quarter, but its inefficient offense and defense allowed the Trojans to put together a 12-0 run. The Cream and Crimson lost by 7.
