Ohio State women’s basketball team advances to Big Ten Tournament semifinals

The Ohio State women’s basketball team has advanced to the Big Ten Tournament semifinals by way of a 74-58 win over Michigan State Friday morning.

Seeded No. 1, the Buckeyes more or less had their way with the Spartans in a quarterfinal matchup inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse. OSU got out fast and never looked back, sprinting out to a 22-8 lead at the end of the first quarter. Ohio State would never relinquish the lead despite the Spartans trimming it to single digits midway through the third quarter.

Michigan State tried to spring a pressing attack on the Buckeyes to keep them on their heels, but it didn’t have the desired effect. OSU head coach Kevin McGuff was proud of the way his team handled the pressure.
