BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (Interstat) — The Indiana Hoosiers will open their 2025-26 women’s basketball season at home Tuesday against the Lipscomb Bisons at Assembly Hall.

Both teams enter the new campaign with 0-0 records. Indiana looks to build on a season that ended in the NCAA Tournament, where it fell to South Carolina 64-53 on March 23. Lipscomb last played in March, concluding its previous season with a 89-74 loss at Western Illinois on March 20.

The matchup serves as a season-opening test for both programs. For the visiting Bisons, it begins a challenging non-conference slate that includes future road games against Belmont and Purdue. The Hoosiers, under the guidance of coach Teri Moren, will look to set a positive tone before a high-profile road test against Florida State on Nov. 16.

This game marks the first meeting between the two programs. Indiana is expected to rely on its experienced core to defend its home court, while Lipscomb aims to start its season with a statement win against a Power Five opponent.

Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. EST Tuesday in Bloomington.
