Purdue Women’s Basketball Unveils 2017-18 Non-Conference Slate

0

The Boilermakers will host eight non-conference games next year

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue women’s basketball head coach Sharon Versyp revealed the bulk of the Boilermakers’ 2017-18 non-conference schedule Tuesday, announcing several of Purdue’s first 14 opponents for next season. The Boilermakers will play host to at least nine opposing teams in Mackey Arena at the end of 2017, beginning with the exhibition opener Nov. 5, 2017.

Purdue welcomes the University of Saint Francis to Mackey Arena for its exhibition opener, beginning the 43rd season of Purdue women’s basketball. The Cougars hail from Fort Wayne, Indiana and are members of NAIA Division II and the Crossroads League. They played in their 17th NAIA Division II Championship tournament in 2016-17, falling in the opening round.

The Boilermakers open the season on the road for the second straight season and 13th time in program history, heading to Central Michigan University on Nov. 10 for their first of four Mid-American Conference (MAC) opponents in 2017-18. The Chippewas finished 23-9 last year, including a 15-3 MAC record, good for tops in their conference, but fell to the Boilermakers in Mackey, 62-51.

Purdue returns to Mackey Arena for the home opener on Nov. 15, hosting Miami (Ohio) in Mackey, marking the eighth meeting with the Redhawks all-time. They’ll follow up with Lamar University on the 18th, meeting for the first time in program history. The Cardinals finished 22-8 in 2016-17, winning 10 of their last 11 regular-season games.

The Boilermakers head west around the Thanksgiving holiday, heading to Utah for the first time in program history for a Nov. 20 tilt with the Fighting Utes before traveling to Hawai’I for the annual Rainbow Wahine Classic. In addition to facing the Rainbow Warriors, Purdue will also meet Southern California and Marist in O’ahu before returning to the mainland for the 2017 Big Ten/ACC Challenge. Opponent and date are yet to be announced for the annual event.

Purdue closes non-conference action with six straight home games in December, starting with Ball State on Dec. 3. The Boilermakers will play Valparaiso and Ohio in quick succession Dec. 8 and 10, and conclude the semester with a trio of home games in Basketball Travelers Invitational in West Lafayette. Purdue will host a pair of games Sunday and Monday, Dec. 17-18, facing Eastern Washington and UT Martin and conclude action Wednesday, Dec. 20, vs. Saint Mary’s before breaking for the semester. Purdue faces Eastern Washington for the first time since 1992, UT Martin for the first time since 2012, and takes on Saint Mary’s for the first time in program history.

Big Week for Purdue Softball

0

 

 

Following a tough series against Illinois, Purdue (15-26, 4-5 B1G) now shifts its focus to its road doubleheader against Indiana (17-21, 3-6 B1G) before hosting Wisconsin (25-7, 4-5 B1G) this weekend. Between the two programs, the Boilermakers own a combined 60-39 record all-time against the pair of Big Ten opponents.

Purdue’s one, two and three hitters are coming off a hot weekend in which they accounted for the majority of the offensive output in the series. Maya Hughes, Kristen Hoppman and Mallory Baker combined for 12 hits in 26 at-bats giving them a combined .462 batting average with six runs batted in and seven runs scored. They also registered a .500 on-base percentage against the Illini and of their 12 hits, three were doubles and one was a home run.

The leadoff hitter, Hughes, has registered 18 multi-hit games this season thanks to a three-for-four performance on Sunday in which she drove in two runs while scoring a pair of her own. With the big day at the plate in the series finale against Illinios, six of her multi-hit efforts have come in nine conference games. Following her four-hit weekend, Hughes advances to 14th in the nation with 55 hits and holds her position as the Big Ten hit leader this season. Altogether, Hughes is hitting .404 on the season and .452 in conference play.

In the two hole, Hoppman raised her batting average from .258 to .271 with four hits in nine at-bats against the Illini. The senior out of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin now takes a five-game hitting streak in which she is hitting .429 with a .714 slugging percentage into tomorrow’s doubleheader. Over the course of the last five games, all of which being against Big Ten opponents, Hoppman has tallied six hits in 14 at-bats with three runs scored, three runs batted in as well as a double and a home run.

If Hughes and Hoppman are able to reach base, there are few better to have at the plate right now than Baker as she is currently in the midst of a 15-game hitting streak. In her last 15 contests, the sophomore has tallied 23 hits in 43 at-bats with 11 runs scored and 12 runs batted in to fuel a .535 batting average. Of her 23 hits, six are doubles and one is a home run, giving her a .744 slugging percentage. She has also worked six walks and has been hit by a pitch twice to earn a .593 on-base percentage.

Baker’s hitting streak isn’t the only impressive stretch the Greenwood, Indiana native has strung together either as she has registered 30 games, 87-straight at-bats, without a strikeout. With just four strikeouts on the year, she is striking out in just 3% of her at-bats and ranks as the nation’s 37thtoughest hitter to strikeout. Just seven other Power Five student-athletes rank ahead of her, two of which hail from the Big Ten.

Overall in 2017, Baker is seeing a huge jump in production from freshman to sophomore year as she is currently hitting .391 with a .522 slugging percentage and a .478 on-base percentage. In 115 at-bats, she has earned 45 hits, 10 doubles, a triple and a home run with 17 walks and just four strikeouts while driving in 26 runs and scoring 23 of her own. In comparison, in all 115 at-bats her first season as a Boilermaker, Baker hit .235 with 27 hits, 14 runs batted in, 12 runs scored, four doubles, a triple and a home run while drawing 15 walks and striking out 23 times.
