After narrowly edging past No.3 Louisville on their home court in the second round of the NCAA tournament, No. 6 DePaul had to wait a few hours to find out if it would be No. 2 Oregon State or a rematch with No. 10 St. Bonaventure. The Beavers did what was expected of them and walloped the Bonnies 69-40, locking up a spot in the Sweet Sixteen against DePaul.
Having had only a day to scout the upcoming opponent, DePaul is still trying to learn its upcoming foe. One thing the team noticed immediately is the dominance of Oregon State’s Jamie Weisner and Ruth Hamblin, PAC-12 Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year respectively.
