DePaul Set for Series at Georgetown

CHICAGO, Ill. - The Blue Demons return to action for the first time since their win against Seton Hall last Saturday in what was meant to be a three-game series but was cut short due to weather. DePaul resumes league play in three contests at Georgetown this weekend.

Saturday will feature a doubleheader set to begin at 11 a.m. CT, while Sunday's lone game will begin at the same time.

Last weekend, Tracie Adix-Zins and staff achieved their first home win leading the DePaul softball program. A four-run sixth inning ultimately made the difference for the Blue Demons as Jessica Cothern launched a three-run homer that was immediately followed by a solo blast from Morgan Greenwood. The offensive burst ended in a 8-6 victory for DePaul.

Cothern leads Blue Demon offense across the board with a .371 batting average, 39 hits, 11 doubles, five home runs and 33 RBI.
