MILWAUKEE – DePaul women’s basketball got the revenge they were looking for in Monday night’s 59-41 rock-fight with St. Johns, sending the Blue Demons into their third championship appearance in four years.
The Blue Demons got off to a slow start on offense, struggling to navigate around a stingy defensive effort from the Red Storm. After a Jessica January layup in the first minute, DePaul played over four minutes without scoring a single point.
St. Johns was one of only two teams to hold DePaul under 60 points in the regular season, the other being the University of Connecticut Huskies, who are currently sitting on a 107-game winning streak.
