Being a walk-on at the Division I level isn’t easy. From the moment these athletes step onto campus, they must prove that they deserve their spot on the court, field, course or rink. Without a scholarship as their security blanket, they can be let go at a moment’s notice.
Four athletes began the challenging walk-on journey Monday, Oct. 2 when DePaul basketball held its first official practice of the season.
DePaul’s Athletic Department denied the DePaulia’s request for interviews with coaches and players.
