BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – When the Indiana women’s basketball nonconference schedule was announced, the conventional wisdom was that the visit from Stanford on Nov. 17 and the Hoosiers’ trip to Battle 4 Atlantis were highlights surrounded by a lot of filler.

That has not turned out to be the case for the Hoosiers.

Many of Indiana’s other nonconference opponents have turned out to be very good too. Another visitor who is vastly improved is Bellarmine. The Knights visit Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall at 2 p.m. ET Sunday.

Bellarmine was 10-19 in the 2023-24 season, but the Knights have won six in a row and make the short trip from Louisville armed with a 9-2 record.

Bellarmine is just the latest mid-major team to come to Bloomington with impressive credentials. Harvard (10-1) and Southern Indiana (8-2) also brought quality teams to face the Hoosiers. Harvard was able to beat Indiana in overtime and the Hoosiers just barely averted the upset against the Screaming Eagles.

Bellarmine is a high scoring team (76.9 ppg) that is adept at outside shooting. The Knights rank 51st nationally in 3-point makes per game (8) and 52nd nationally in 3-point percentage (35.2%).

Indiana has had eight days to rest up and will get another seven-day break after the Bellarmine game as Indiana has final exams this week.
