The narratives

After falling short of their third consecutive Big East title last year, DePaul heads to Milwaukee with a target on their back as they look to reclaim their crown.

Jessica January has been absent from DePaul’s lineup since late December. Now the senior looks to rejoin her team in the postseason.

The Blue Demons have been next to unbeatable in conference this year, but two losses to Marquette will add pressure to DePaul’s pursuit of another conference title.

Creighton sits tied with DePaul at the top of the Big East, eager to overcome last year’s championship loss to St. John.
