Demon Doings
DePaul will play its second exhibition against a Division II opponent in a 10-day span to open the 2024-25 campaign after a convincing 93-41 win over Lewis at McGrath-Phillips Arena on Friday, Oct. 18.
The Blue Demons dominated inside in the victory as Graduate forward Jorie Allen, a preseason All-BIG EAST Honorable Mention selection, posted 19 points and 13 rebounds while shooting 53-percent from the field. Junior transfer Meg Newman added 12 points on five-of-six shooting to go with seven rebounds and a team-best five assists.
Against the Flyers, DePaul showed flashes of its patented 'DePaul Ball' style of play, putting on the pressure and pushing the pace to turn 20 miscues into 30 points on the other end. 12 of 15 active Blue Demons found their way on the scoresheet with at least a field goal.
Winona State Notes
A season ago, the Warriors posted an overall record of 10-18 with nine of those victories coming in Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) action. Winona State returns seven letterwinners from last year's squad including leading scorer Olivia Gamoke, who averaged 9.4 points per game in 2023-24.
Head coach Ana Wurtz enters her third season leading her alma mater and has tutored 21 all-conference selections and a pair of All-America honorees.
