BLOOMINGTON — The Indiana women’s basketball team simply had no answer for UCLA's Lauren Betts in a 73-62 loss at Assembly Hall on Saturday afternoon.

Besides Indiana’s shortcomings, UCLA’s Lauren Betts had a lot to say about Indiana’s fate. The 6-foot-7 National Player of the Year candidate was as good as advertised. She scored 25 points on 12 of 16 shooting and had 12 rebounds. Her influence was inescapable on both ends of the floor.

While Indiana’s defense faltered at times throughout the second half, its offense was able to keep it within reach of UCLA. It outscored UCLA by 1 point in the second half, and although the Hoosier’s efforts weren’t enough to upset the number one team in the country, Moren still found positives in her teams 62-73 defeat to the Bruins.
