BLOOMINGTON, Ind.- The Brown women's basketball team will open their 2024-25 season at No. 24/25 Indiana on Monday. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.

The game will be broadcast live on Big Ten Plus.

Scouting the Bears

Brown will look to earn their first win of the season for the first time since the 2018-2019 season. The Bears opened the 2018-2019 season against Central Connecticut State, posting a 69-63 win over the Blue Devils.
The Bears will play their fourth season under head coach Monique LeBlanc, and are looking to build off of last season's campaign.
Brown finished last season with a total of 16 wins, with nine of those wins happening on the road.
The Bears returns nine players from last season, adding more depth to their roster. The team also welcomes three newcomers that will look to make an impact in the lineup.
Last season Brown ranked second in blocked shots, and third in team defense in the Ivy League. They look to build upon that this season.

Scouting the Hoosiers

Indiana closed out the 2023-2024 season with a 26-6 record, going undefeated at home (17-0).
The Hoosiers are led by head coach Teri Moren. Moren enters her 11th season as Indiana's head coach.
Indiana looks to replace their top two scorers from last season, Mackenzie Holmes and Sara Scalia. Holmes averaged 19.8 points per game, while Scalia averaged 16.3.
Indiana returns Yarden Garzon, their third highest scorer last season. Garzon averaged 11.7 points per game.
Chloe Moore-McNeil and Sydney Parrish return for a fifth season. Moore-McNeil ranked third in free throw percentage with .761. Parrish ranked second on the team in rebounds with an average of 6.0 per game.
