Women's Basketball Dominates Indiana State on Kid's Day, 94-71

Flames Post Three Double-Doubles in Dismantling of Sycamores

CHICAGO (Feb. 21, 2025) – The UIC women's basketball team (11-13, 8-7 MVC) opened its two-game homestand Friday morning, as the Flames hosted Indiana State (4-22, 2-13 MVC) in a special 11 a.m. Kids Day Celebration, with over 2,000 children from Chicago area schools in attendance.
The Flames jumped out to an early advantage early in the first quarter, taking a commanding 17-7 lead after 10 minutes. The offensive explosion began shortly after, with UIC scoring 49 points in the first half. Riding hot shooting from the floor (43%), the Flames coasted to a 23-point victory, 94-71, in front of 3,026 fans.


 
COACH'S COMMENTS
"Today was an incredible home victory," commented head coach Ashleen Bracey. "I felt like our girls played incredibly well today, and I think the large home crowd had a lot to do with that. It was a great experience having so many local Chicago youth in attendance today, and we hope to continue doing events like this in the future."
