Freshman Maya Makalusky just turned heads in her first-ever start for Indiana women’s basketball, dropping a career-high 22 points and showing she’s ready for the big stage. With IU’s roster stretched thin by injuries and illness, Makalusky stepped up—nailing six threes, grabbing rebounds, and even filling in at center. Her energy and confidence sparked a 98-54 win and brought new hope to a team that’s been struggling. It’s not every day a rookie makes this kind of impact. What do you think—should Coach Moren keep her in the starting lineup as Big Ten play heats up? #Sports #Basketball #IUBasketball
