Per an Indiana release on Thursday, Indiana women’s basketball is set for a foreign tour of Greece August 1st-10th.
This news goes along with the announcement earlier this week of Amber Smith becoming the new assistant coach and joining Teri Moren’s staff.
Indiana women’s basketball will be coming into the 2023-24 season as the defending Big Ten champions.
Below is the full release.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana women’s basketball will take its first foreign tour in six years when it travels to Greece August 1-10.
The trip will begin in Athens and make stops in the Gulf of Corinth where it will explore Nafpaktos and Delphi. A full day trip to Olympia is also on the agenda, where the group will experience the ancient Olympic Gymnasium and Stadium. The team will also play two games, one in Athens and one in the Patras during its time in Greece.
The tour is made possible by the Indiana University Athletics Women’s Excellence initiative. The mission of Indiana University Athletics Women’s Excellence is to raise private support to elevate its 13 women’s varsity sports and to enhance the overall student-athlete experience of IU’s female student-athletes.
Indiana previously took a foreign tour under Moren in 2017 when it traveled to Italy. The NCAA allows teams to take a foreign tour once every four years. Indiana is allotted 10 practice days leading up to the trip, which will begin in July.
The 2023-24 Hoosier roster will feature four returners from a team that won the regular season Big Ten Championship outright for the first time in 40 years. First team All-American Mackenzie Holmes highlights Indiana’s roster for the upcoming season along with rising seniors Chloe Moore-McNeil and Sydney Parrish.
