The Butler softball team went 1-2 in its series against DePaul to open Big East conference play on March 23 and 24 to move to 10-19 on the year. The Blue Demons were able to win both games of the Saturday doubleheader before Butler took the final game of the series to avoid the sweep.
Freshman outfielder Lauren Fey continued her recent tear at the plate in the three-game set as she had six hits across three games and brought in five runs.
