COLUMBUS (AP) — Jacy Sheldon scored 25 points, Cotie McMahon had 20 points and seven rebounds and No. 8 Ohio State used a second-half surge to upend No. 10 Indiana 74-69 for its ninth consecutive win.
The Buckeyes took off in the third quarter, going on a 16-5 run to finish the frame up by eight points.
They led by as many as 14 with 7:32 left in the game.
But a three-minute scoring drought by Ohio State allowed Indiana to cut the deficit to eight.
Two late 3-pointers by Yarden Garzon kept the Hoosiers in it, but the Buckeyes outlasted them.
Sara Scalia led Indiana with 25 points.
