Indiana sophomore guard Lenee Beaumont is out for the 2024-25 season following knee surgery, the program announced Thursday morning.

The 6-foot-1 guard from Lisle, Illinois did not appear in IU’s first 11 games this season. Here’s the full statement from IU on Beaumont’s injury and her status moving forward:

“Indiana women’s basketball sophomore guard Lenee Beaumont underwent successful knee surgery this week. Medical staff have determined she will miss the remainder of the 2024-25 season and will utilize her medical redshirt.

“Lenee is in fantastic care with our medical staff, and we are looking forward to her return in 2025-26.”

Beaumont appeared in 30 games off the bench last season for the Hoosiers and averaged three points in 9.6 minutes per game.

She logged a season-high 31 minutes and scored 11 points in a win against Northwestern on January 28.

The 2023 Illinois Miss Basketball and Gatorade Player of the Year in Illinois averaged 18.8 points, 7.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.7 steals per game as a senior at Benet Academy. Beaumont scored over 1,300 career points in high school.

By utilizing her medical redshirt, Beaumont will have three seasons of eligibility remaining.

Indiana will host Oakland on Sunday at noon ET in its final non-conference game. The Hoosiers are 8-3.
