The Butler University softball team was swept by DePaul University in a three-game weekend series from April 28-29. The Bulldogs fell to 7-8 in Big East play and 20-25 on the season with the losses.

In the first game of the weekend, Butler got on the boards first with a two-run second inning. Sophomore infielder Madi Christiansen drove in a run with a double and sophomore outfielder Alyssa Garcia drew a bases-loaded walk to score another run.
