IU basketball set for its second group-stage game at FISU America Games

The Indiana University men's basketball team prepares for its second and final group-stage game at the 2026 FISU America Games in Lima, Peru. Representing the United States, the team enters today's contest after a commanding performance in their tournament opener against Peru earlier this week.

In that first game, the Hoosiers secured a decisive 115-36 victory. This result placed them in a strong position within Group B, which consists of the United States, Peru, and the United States Virgin Islands. The upcoming match against the Virgin Islands will determine the final standing for the group.

The tournament schedule continues to progress quickly. Following today's group-stage conclusion, the competition shifts to the semifinals on Saturday, July 25. The schedule for the remainder of the event includes the third-place game on Monday, July 27, and the tournament final later that same day.

Tournament standings show high activity across both groups. Argentina leads Group A with a 2-0 record. Meanwhile, other international teams including Brazil, Chile, and Colombia are fighting for positioning to advance to the knockout rounds. The results from the upcoming games will clarify the bracket for the final stages of the event.
