DePaul women's basketball faces challenges after rough 2025-26 season
Summary

The DePaul Blue Demons, coming off an 8-24 record in the 2025-26 season, are looking to rebound as they prepare for the upcoming campaign. Significant roster changes include the loss of key players such as leading scorer Katie Novik and notable departures including Natiah Nelson and Ally Timm. The team managed only a first-round exit in the Big East tournament, falling to Providence. With a team now featuring two returning players and added transfers, questions remain about DePaul's ability to improve their standing in the Big East. The season ahead will depend on how new and returning players perform together.
