🏀 Ohio State women's basketball remains undefeated

The Buckeye women's basketball team record is still perfect through two months of the season.

State of play: Coming off a Sweet 16 appearance in last year's March Madness tournament, Ohio State (17-0) is one of just three undefeated teams remaining in women's college basketball.

• They opened the season ranked No. 14, climbing all the way to No. 3 this week.

Zoom in: OSU breezed through non-conference play, winning its first nine games each by double-digit margins.

• Things have gotten tougher since the start of Big Ten play, with the Buckeyes eking out an overtime victory against South Florida and beating Michigan by nine points.

The intrigue: The team features homegrown talent in guards Madison Greene (Pickerington Central High School), Mya Perry (Reynoldsburg Summit HS) and Jacy Sheldon (Dublin Coffman HS).

• Greene and Sheldon are two of six OSU players currently averaging over 10 points per game.

Up next: The Buckeyes travel to Nebraska on Saturday before returning home to face Northwestern next Thursday. Tickets start at $10.
