Lady Panthers end road trip at Indianapolis
The Drury Lady Panthers play their final regular season road game on Saturday as they take on Indianapolis.
 
Drury is looking to bounce back from an 87-79 loss on Thursday at Lewis. The Lady Panthers are 24-4, 14-3 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference, and are ranked fourth in the latest NCAA-II coaches' poll.
 
Indianapolis enters Saturday's game looking to snap a three-game losing streak. The Greyhounds lost at home on Thursday to Missouri S&T, 70-65. UIndy is 9-14 and 6-9 in the GLVC.
 
Saturday's game is the first meeting between the two teams this year. The only head-to-head match-up last year occurred in the GLVC Quarterfinals as Drury edged the Greyhound 70-66 in the O'Reilly Family Event Center on March 3, 2021.
 
The Lady Panthers lead the all-time series 9-4 and have won seven straight against Indianapolis. Drury is 6-2 all-time at Nicoson Hall.
 
Drury guard Paige Robinson has played three games since returning from a hand injury that kept her on the sideline for nearly two months. The senior is averaging 26 per game in those three games and put in 29 on Thursday at Lewis. She is averaging 23.1 points for the season.
