The Ohio State women's basketball team obviously had a good scouting report. A night after Penn State's Maggie Lucas and Julia Trogele combined for 43 points, Ohio State held them to just nine in the Big Ten Tournament Championship Game. The Lady Lions fell 84-70 to the Buckeyes on Sunday in their quest for a first Big Ten Tournament title since 1996. Ohio State used an efficient offense, a plus-7 rebounding margin and solid defense to stymie Penn State's chances.
As players, Maggie Lucas and Julia Trogele do not have much in common. Lucas is a guard, a freshman, a bench player, and is known for her 3-point shooting. Trogele is a forward, a senior, a starter, and is known more for her rebounding and leadership. What the two do have in common is the fact that they led the Penn State women's basketball team to the Big Ten Championship game by beating Illinois 79-64 on Saturday.
The Lady Lions will take on Ohio State in the final of the Big Ten Tournament on Sunday at 3:30 p.m. Penn State is looking for their first Big Ten Tournament title since 1996.
