Maryland frustrates Moren By Stefan Krajisnik stefkraj@iu.edu | @skrajisnik3
IU women’s basketball Coach Teri Moren could hardly hold herself up with less than two minutes remaining in the third quarter of Sunday’s matchup against No. 11 Maryland. Slouched in the arms of assistant coach Janese Constantine, Moren looked on in disbelief after freshman guard Grace Berger was called for a travel. “You can control a lot of things,” Moren said. “There are a lot of things you can’t control either, when I think about this game.” But the travel wasn’t quite the low point of Moren’s frustrations in IU’s 76-56 loss. Midway through the third quarter, Moren reached her boiling point after disagreeing with a no-call as sophomore guard Bendu Yeaney drove to the basket. After shouting at the referees, she was assessed her first technical foul of the season. Moren was then held back by her assistants when she stepped out onto the court. As a result, Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall reached its loudest point of the night with boos raining down from the stands. The boos quickly turned into a chant of “Teri! Teri! Teri!” While it did bring a slight spurt of energy into the stadium, Moren said the technical foul was simply based off her getting a good look at the play and wanting to protect her players. “Maryland has shown on film a propensity to foul,” Moren said. “They foul, and obviously we weren’t getting those calls today. That was what was frustrating, and you feel badly for your team because they’re playing to the game plan, and yet it didn’t seem like things were going the way that we had hoped they would or expected.” IU came out with high energy in the first quarter for the second-consecutive game. However, the Hoosiers could not get themselves going in the final three frames. Maryland controlled momentum with its ability to convert 25 fast-break points, made easy in part due to 20 IU turnovers.

56-76 “Giving the ball to them, them getting layups in transitions, just because we turned the ball over,” sophomore guard Jaelynn Penn said. “We got ourselves with that. That really was the game-changer.” Junior guard Kaila Charles led the way for the Terrapins, scoring 25 points Sunday, 21 of which came in the first half. “She was getting a lot of wide-open layups because they were getting steals,” Yeaney said. “She’s gonna make her shots. She’s a great player, but I think we did a decent job on her in the half court. It was just our turnovers led to open layups for her.” While Maryland’s leading scorer made plays, it was the opposite for IU’s top offensive threat.
Junior guard Ali Patberg came into the game averaging more points than Charles but has trended in the wrong direction of late. After scoring a total of 10 points in her previous two games, Patberg came out flat against the Terrapins. She managed to score just three points, all of which came late in the fourth quarter with the game well out of reach. “What we don’t do is give up on her,” Moren said. “I have to believe that some of it is mental, right now inside of her head. We’ve got to figure out how we can go back and show her clips of things when she was really good.” With the loss, IU is now 16-5 on the season with a 5-4 record in the Big Ten. The Hoosiers’ next game is at 7 p.m. Thursday at No. 14 Rutgers. SEE MORE PHOTOS, PAGE 5
Students can report icy spots across campus By Alex Hardgrave ahardgra@iu.edu | @a_hardgrave
This week is set to bring cold temperatures and ice that could make the walk to class slippery, but students have a way to report those potentially dangerous spots. Anyone can call the IU Control Center, part of IU Facility Operations, at 812-8558728 to report icy areas almost anywhere on campus other than at residence halls. This service is nothing new, Beth Feickert, IU Capital Planning project specialist, said in an email. Someone will answer the phone any time, every day of the week. IU’s Twitter page and the
A 19-year-old man is being charged for allegedly raping a 20-year-old woman. The woman told police John Schwartz raped her between 2 and 3 a.m. Friday at her house, Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Shane Rasche said. Police said Schwartz is an IU student. Police listed his address as the Sigma Pi fraternity house. The woman reported the rape around 2:30 p.m. Friday at the police station. BPD could not confirm whether she is an IU student. She told police she started talking to Schwartz on Tuesday over Instagram. Schwartz came over to the woman’s house Thursday night. When the woman, one of her roommates and Schwartz were in the living room, Schwartz kept suggesting they go to the woman’s bedroom to lay down, she told police. All three of them went to the bedroom where Schwartz and the woman lay in the bed together while the roommate sat on the floor. The roommate, who told police she began to feel uncomfortable, left. Once she left, Schwartz made an advance on the woman, police said. She told police she turned him down and thought he understood. However, she reported he began grabbing her and then raped her. Police said she told him no at least 10 times.
Inside IU Bloomington newsletter have helped to make the service more widely known in the past few years, Feickert said. IU Student Government chief of staff Isabel Mishkin said she was not aware of the number but thinks it’s a good service for IU to provide. She said she feels it is even more important to monitor slick spots because of students who often ride e-scooters. “This is a really valuable service that should be better advertised,” she said. She said she personally has had problems walking down
Nonprofits remain unsure By Joy Burton joyburt@iu.edu | @joybur10
President Trump signed a short-term bill to end the nation’s longest-ever government shutdown Friday. But the bill only lasts through February 15, meaning relief may be temporary. Julio Alonso, Hoosier Hills Food Bank Executive Director and CEO, said the shutdown forced over 8,000 Monroe County residents who receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits to ration their money more carefully because February’s allotted SNAP benefits were given out two weeks early.
“We forget the fear that’s happening for all of these people. We just don’t think about it.” Debra Morrow, Middle Way House Executive Director
“SNAP is a lifeline,” Alonso said. “Even temporarily losing that or having to adjust creates an issue.” Benefits were given ALEX DERYN | IDS
