Going into the 2022-2023 NCAA basketball season, Northwestern had no expectations. After a disappointing year in 2021-22, the Wildcats saw key contributors Pete Nance and Ryan Young leave the program, and Chris Collins was issued an ultimatum: one more chance to be successful.
Well, fast forward, and Northwestern is having one of the best seasons in its history, and this could not have been done without the current senior class. Boo Buie, Chase Audige, Robbie Beran, Tydus Verhoeven and Roy Dixon III have all made their marks on the program, and Wednesday night will be a celebration for a class that had a revolutionary impact.
