Standout performances from Brooke Schulte and Jacqui Grant steered No. 21 DePaul (15-4) to an 85-69 victory against Xavier (10-8) on Sunday afternoon to give the Demon’s their eighth consecutive conference win.
“I was really proud of our team’s readiness to play,” head coach Doug Bruno said after the game. “That’s so important because every one of these Big East teams has the talent to beat everyone else.”
Senior guard Brooke Schulte put on a show in the first half, dropping 20 points to go along with a dominant nine rebounds and three steals.
“I can’t thank my teammates enough for getting me the ball when I’m open,” Schulte said postgame.
