Indiana Defeats Patras All Stars 101-36, Scalia Leaves Game With Injury

The Indiana women's basketball team, led by coach Teri Moren, defeated the Patras All Stars 101-36 on Saturday behind 23 points from Sydney Parrish and 21 points from Sara Scalia. Late in the fourth quarter, Scalia walked off the court with what appeared to be a left knee injury.

Another day, another dominant win for Teri Moren and the Indiana Hoosiers.

In the team's second and final game during its foreign tour of Greece, Indiana defeated the Patras All Stars 101-36 on Saturday. 

It was another great game for seniors Sydney Parrish and Sara Scalia, who led the team with 23 and 21 points, as well as four and five made three-pointers each, respectively. The two finished as the leading scores for the Hoosiers during the pair of games in Greece, as Parrish averaged 21.5 PPG, and Scalia averaged 18 PPG. 

Parrish and Scalia also hit 10 threes apiece during their games in Athens and Patras. 

However, the game definitely did not end in the way Moren and the Hoosiers wanted it to. Driving in for a fast break layup with just over two minutes remaining in the game, Scalia landed awkwardly on her left knee, causing it to buckle.

The senior shooter quickly relocated to the corner and attempted a three, but after shooting it, she immediately felt something was wrong. Scalia then started walking to the IU bench and immediately called for a sub.

Scalia was not taken back to a locker room, but was looked at by IU trainers for the rest of the game. The team did not hold any postgame media availabilities, so there is no further update on Scalia's injury at this time. 

Also, for the second game in a row, superstar center Mackenzie Holmes did not play, though that is likely just a precautionary measure, and not due to any unknown injury with Holmes. 

UPDATE — an earlier version of this story did not include the full box score because the Indiana women's basketball team had not yet issued it. Full box score now included here, highlighted by four Hoosier players scoring double-digits, and the team as a whole finishing with a whopping 15 steals.
