INDIANAPOLIS (Interstat) — Two teams looking to build early momentum will meet Wednesday when the Butler Bulldogs host the Central Michigan Chippewas in a nonconference women’s basketball game at Hinkle Fieldhouse.

Both teams enter the contest with 1-1 records. Central Michigan is coming off a dominant 71-44 victory over Davenport on Sunday, powered by a double-double from Ayanna-Sarai Darrington, who scored 15 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. The Chippewas’ season opened with a 98-72 road loss to Georgia Southern.

Butler seeks to rebound from a tough 74-69 overtime loss to Columbia on Friday. In that game, Nevaeh Jackson led the Bulldogs with 14 points and seven rebounds, while Kennedy Langham and Lily Zeinstra each added 13 points. The Bulldogs opened their season with a convincing 74-53 win over Wright State.

The matchup will be a test for both squads before they navigate challenging upcoming schedules. Central Michigan will travel to Detroit next, while Butler will host Northern Kentucky on Sunday.

Tipoff is set for Wednesday night at historic Hinkle Fieldhouse.
