DePaul women’s basketball pulled away after a close first quarter as they crushed Butler 102-63 on senior day. Two seniors for DePaul, Chanise Jenkins and Megan Podkowa, were honored after the game.
In the first quarter Butler jumped out to an early lead. Bolstered by nine points on three three-pointers by Blaire Langlois, the Bulldogs went up 11-4 just under three minutes in. The Blue Demons went on a 7-0 run to tie it, however, and then started to take over. Jenkins laid a ball in as the buzzer went off to give the Blue Demons a 21-17 lead at the end of the first.
